CMS volunteers lend a hand at the Mental Health Association of Sarawak

Monday, 8 October, 2012, Kuching – 117 employee volunteers from CMS Cement, CMS Roads, CMS Premix, CMS Quarries, CMS Concrete Products, CMS Clinker and CMS Property Development turned up in full force to lend a hand at the temporary shelter of the Mental Health Association of Sarawak (MHAS) at Jalan Stakan, Kota Sentosa yesterday. CMS Cement also donated a metric tonne of cement for maintenance purposes.

Our group of caring CMS employees are helping MHAS dream of having a building of their own for the mental patients.

Dr Lau Kim Kah, chairman of MHAS Kuching branch said association had thus far raised about RM500,000, but the proposed project needed between RM2 million and RM3 million.

The new home would not only be used to accommodate mental patients but would also be used as a training centre to arm the residents with skills to help them gain employment.
