Walk into the Light Penang 2010

Inspired by the walk held in US to prevent suicides called “Out of the Darkness”, D’Home and Penang Care aim to bring this meaningful event to Penang, giving it a new face by giving it new meaning.

Walk into the Light aims to raise fund for D’Home and Penang Care. More importantly, this walk is to increase public awareness towards the importance of maintaining mental health, and early detection and treatment of mental disorders so as to prevent future suicides. The walk serves as a wakeup call to educate the public about the importance of prevention than cure, and how the participating NGOs can serve as point of reference, a sounding board for advice and support. Walk into the Light aims to attract 1,5000 participants in its inauguration and set to raise RM200,000 for the NGOs.
