An electronics engineer who used to test cars for a living, Beng Kooi started volunteering at KSK even before its official inception in 2008. Beng Kooi was part of an informal group that wanted to create a community action group that would better the lives of the homeless and underprivileged.
Being on the streets opened her eyes to the suffering that existed right under her nose. There is nothing like watching an elderly man fish leftovers from a dumpster – this opened her heart and put her problems into perspective.
Through KSK, Beng Kooi made new friends, participated in good work and found a new purpose in life. She hopes many more will be able to experience what KSK has to offer, beginning with the simple act of giving food, care and hope to those less fortunate than ourselves.
