Happy to announce that we have kick started the FORWARD Handholding & Mentoring Program for 90 financially vulnerable individuals last month. Sessions have been going well and the participation level of the trainees is overwhelming. Here are some of the feedback from our participants: “This is my first time attending such a program. I am excited and looking forward to more sessions..” – Ms V, Wangsa Maju, Kuala Lumpur “I am a preschool teacher. But I lost my income due to the pandemic. This program has opened up my mind to find other ways to generate income” – Ms R, Kampung Baru, Perak “I have been learning so much new stuff through the training, looking forward to improving myself” – Ms P, Seremban, Negeri Sembilan “I have never saved any money before. But the session I attended on finance was an eye opener in understanding my financial strength and weaknesses”- Ms. P, Seremban, Negeri Sembilan “I love the way they carry out the sessions. Very easy and engaging. Not boring…hahaha” – Ms. N, Kuantan, Pahang Primus Wellness is looking forward to reaching out to more needy individuals; in particular the financially vulnerable and those affected badly by pandemic. If you wish to participate in this FORWARD program, please contact our office at 03-28574024 or 017-2535061. We take this opportunity to thank MAGIC for making this program happen and in supporting us in this venture of creating self sustaining entrepreneurs.

Spending time with Ms. Maruthayi. An inspirational women with so much strength #inspiration #socialimpact     I was not able to contact her. Decided to visit her near Pulau Carey where she lives with her husband and 9 children. Me : Why didn’t answer my call ‘ka’? (sister in tamil) She : I didn’t top up my phone. So sorry. And I am taking care of these 3 children ka. (While feeding a baby with milk bottle). Me : Don’t tell me they are yours. (I joked) She : Aiyo, no ‘ka’. I’m just babysitting for extra bucks. So can’t move anywhere now like before. Me : How about your sales? Okay? She : Moving ka. A bit slow because of the lockdown too. But I will come back! Me : Understand. That’s why I like you Maruthayi. You are an Iron Lady. Stay as one. Do you need any other support for now? What do you want? She : I know you and ‘anna’ (referring to Mr Gandhi from Vallalar Assoc) will guide my children with their education. Not worried about that. But I have a personal wish. Me : What is it? (curiously I asked) She : I love singing. I wished I could be a singer one day but I knew it would never materialise. Do you want to hear me singing? Me : Pleaseeee….go ahead! And I will share it to the world. She hugged me. Sharing Maruthayi’s soulful singing. Let’s not take life for granted. To sing without soul is inexcusable. Life is a song and let’s sing like Maruthayi!

Glad to engage with our army veterans from Perim Melaka. It was a wonderful session to be able to share about Primus Wellness social enterprise venture. Looking forward to joining hands and supporting a few veterans that are keen in our venture. #veterans #wellness #socialenterprise #socialimpact
