McDonald’s Malaysia ushers in the Chinese New Year this year with a gesture which goes beyond giving material gifts -- by spending meaningful moments with residents of selected homes. 

Since January 11 this year, McDonald’s employees representing 267 restaurants have been visiting a total of 81 old folks’ home to bring cheer and happiness to the homes’ residents as they spread the Chinese New Year festive spirit. The campaign which was partly in collaboration with Astro also saw an overwhelming participation of volunteers from among members of the public

This is the second year McDonald’s has embarked on this initiative to bring cheer to the residents and help lift their spirit as we all usher the new lunar year. During the visit, McDonald’s employees and the volunteers spent time with the residents of the respective home chatting besides having meals together. 

This is also McDonald’s second year collaborating with Astro in efforts to bring happiness to the old folks’ home.
