Be a part of something bigger, join Mabuhay Fil-Can Inc. in our mission today

 The Mabuhay Fil-Can Youth Ambassadors of Kingston, Ontario, is honoured to support the 2026 celebration of **关圣帝君千秋圣诞 (Guan Sheng Di Jun’s Sacred Birthday)**, an occasion that brings together faith, generosity, and community service.

As part of the celebration, the organizers carried out a meaningful charitable initiative by distributing essential goods and care items to elderly members of the community. Donations included soap, towels, tissue, instant noodles, baked beans, and other daily necessities that can provide practical support and comfort to seniors.

For us at the Mabuhay Fil-Can Youth Ambassadors of Kingston Ontario, supporting this initiative is a meaningful way to promote the values of kindness, compassion, respect for elders, and giving back to the community. We are grateful for the opportunity to be part of an event that goes beyond celebration and puts generosity into action.

Although we are based in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, we believe that distance should never be a barrier to kindness and generosity. We are proud that, even from afar, we can extend our support to charitable events and meaningful causes in Malaysia. This reminds us that our commitment to community service goes beyond borders.

May this celebration of Guan Sheng Di Jun continue to inspire unity, goodwill, and compassion, and may these small acts of kindness bring warmth and joy to the elderly who receive them.

The Mabuhay Fil-Can Youth Ambassadors of Kingston Ontario is proud to support this meaningful cause and to contribute to a community built on faith, generosity, compassion, and care for others.

And there’s more to come!

 It was a heartfelt and eye‑opening experience for Mabuhay Fil‑Can Inc. as we visited Threads of Hope Kingston today to drop off clothing donations. Upon arriving, we were met with rows of empty racks—an immediate reminder of how great the need is within our community.

The staff shared how urgently they require adult clothing, shoes, jackets, sweaters, pants, shirts, and other wearable items to support individuals and families who rely on their services. Despite the heavy reality, we were deeply moved by the kindness of everyone who has already contributed, and we extend our sincere gratitude to all donors who continue to show generosity and compassion.

Mabuhay Fil‑Can Inc. is honored to stand alongside Threads of Hope in this effort. We are equally grateful to our volunteers whose dedication and community spirit make moments like this possible. Together, we can help refill those empty racks and bring comfort, dignity, and hope to those who need it most.

If you have gently used clothing you no longer need, we warmly encourage you to consider donating. Every item makes a meaningful difference.

 On January 13, 2026, the Mabuhay Youth Ambassadors continued their community service efforts by partnering with Threads of Hope in Kingston, Ontario. 

Together with the Mabuhay Fil-Can Inc. Board of Directors, they toured the facility to learn about its work and donated clothing to support individuals experiencing homelessness. The initiative strengthened community partnerships and reflected Mabuhay’s ongoing commitment to service, dignity, and hope.

In the spirit of giving, our community came together to support Kingston Interval House, with Dominique from KIH joining us as the event’s speaker and official representative. Dominique graciously received the donations on behalf of KIH, as we extended hope and comfort to women and children in need. Through generous contributions of essentials, clothing, and personal care items, we helped make a meaningful difference in the lives of those seeking safety and a fresh start

This donation drive serves as a powerful reminder that kindness and compassion can transform lives — one act of generosity at a time.
