On 11 October 2025, the Marriott Business Council Malaysia organised the Road to Give 2025 charity event at The Westin Desaru Coast Resort as part of Marriott International’s annual global community initiative. Through its generous support, KDSF-JB received RM26,226.00, which was used to purchase new sensory equipment for the Therapy Room and replace ageing air-conditioning units at the centre.
On 21 April 2026, KDSF-JB was honoured to welcome representatives from Four Points by Sheraton Desaru and members of the Marriott Business Council Malaysia, including The Westin Desaru Coast Resort, Renaissance Johor Bahru Hotel, Courtyard by Marriott Melaka, and Sheraton Johor Bahru. During the visit, the centre received a mock cheque of RM10,000.00 in support of its ongoing programmes and services.
The visit also marked the official ribbon-cutting ceremony of the newly upgraded Therapy Room, made possible through Marriott Business Council Malaysia’s sponsorship. Guests toured the facility and viewed the enhanced sensory equipment, which will further support the early intervention and developmental needs of children attending KDSF-JB.
KDSF-JB extends its sincere appreciation to the Marriott Business Council Malaysia and Four Points by Sheraton Desaru for their generous contributions and continued commitment to creating a more conducive learning environment for children with Down syndrome.
