The aim of this campaign is to raise awareness and the concern of the general public so that we, as a community will take pro-active actions to try to prevent such crimes from happening in our homes, kindergartens, child care centres, child minders’ homes, schools, bus sekolah, neighbourhoods, etc.
The event plans to carry out a 1 year campaign which aims to sign up 1,000 organizations to support this campaign and get their help to organize at least 100 talks/forums/workshops.
Children are our nation's hope. Healthy children are our nation's future wealth. Their smiling, innocent and lovely faces is one of the most important element of a happy and joyful family. However the increasing statistics of sexual crimes against them saddens everyone. How can we expect our country to be strong when it's children are not happy and healthy, especially mentally?
Thus it is crucial that we make the effort to help preserve them a safe growing up environment.
By help bringing this matter to the society aiming to improve the awareness, the people know the urgency and the necessity in taking actions against such threat. It is too at the same time reminding the people to always stay alert in order to prevent tragedy.
Once again, thank you Madam Priscilla. It is our pleasure to be a part of this event as it helps raise our motto of being the inspiration to another level. We at Allspire strive to inspire all!
