KOTA BARU: Kota Baru Grand Renai Hotel today donated 30 sets of used furniture worth about RM15,000 to schools under the Kelantan Islamic Foundation (YIK).
The handing over of the furniture was done at the hotel this morning by its general-manager Amer Ahmad.
Receiving the donation was YIK's deputy director (management) Shamsul Abu Bakar.
Amer said the 30 pieces of furniture were previously used as decorative items at the hotel's rooms.
"This furniture is still in good condition. The hotel decided to let go of this furniture as we want to replace them with new items following the hotel's renovation.
"This charity programme was the first organised by the hotel and we plan to carry out more in future," he said.
Shamsul thanked the hotel for the donation, saying that it would benefit the schools under the foundation.
"We will place the furniture at some of our schools. Currently, there are 93 schools under us located in several districts in the state," he added.
