To this effect, GCC has been arranging various activities, including dinners, exhibitions, and picnics.
Volunteers from GCC have gathered to visit local organizations including religious establishments and interfaith organizations. Readers can visit the organization’s website www.gccfoundation.com and have an update on its activities.
Earlier, the Los Angeles-based Malaysian community had also contributed to the President’s Relief Fund and handed over a check to the Consulate.
