As part of its corporate social responsibility (CSR) and corporate volunteer day, Cagamas supported a collaboration between IDEAS Autism Centre (IAC) and Incitement Malaysia-Urban Hijau to build Malaysia’s first sensory garden designed for children with autism at IAC, Nilai. The sensory garden will assist in regulating emotions, reducing rigidity, and fostering a sense of safety and calm for autistic children, and is also open to the community of parents, educators, therapists, and caretakers of autistic children in the area.
In conjunction with the Company’s corporate volunteer day, 16 Cagamas volunteers participated in a one-day programme to complete the project with additional visual and audio sensory components through activities such as mural painting, planting vegetables and wind chime assembly.
