Dr. Dame Shellie Hunt, founder of Women of Global Change (WGC), led impactful humanitarian initiatives in Malaysia, supporting women, children, and families through donations, educational programs, and community outreach. Highlighting WGC's global mission, this visit exemplifies its commitment to empowering communities, advancing healthcare, and fostering sustainable change across international borders.

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Jan. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In a heartfelt mission to uplift and empower, Dr. Dame Shellie Hunt, founder of the globally acclaimed non-profit Women of Global Change (WGC), touched down in Kuala Lumpur to bring comfort, support, and opportunities to women, children, and families. Partnering with Anne Tham, WGC Malaysia Chapter President, Dr. Hunt's visit was a powerful reminder of the strength found in global unity and shared purpose.

At the heart of Dr. Hunt's visit was her time at the University of Malaya Medical Center, where she met with patients undergoing chemotherapy at the 10U Daily Treatment Center. In a gesture of compassion and care, she brought essential self-care equipment and greeting cards filled with words of encouragement, delivering not just physical support but also hope. The visit was warmly received by medical leaders, including Prof. Dr. Woo Yin Ling, Mrs. Fatimang Ladola, and Mrs. Sarina Binti Ismail, who welcomed the efforts to bring light to these patients' journeys.

"This visit was not just about the gifts we brought, but the human connection we shared," said Dr. Hunt. "Every kind word, every small act of love, is a reminder to these patients that they are seen, valued, and supported in their fight."

Dr. Hunt also visited the DWI Emas International School, where she shared stories, inspiration, and essential care packages with the children. Each package, containing items like hand sanitizer, candy, soap, handwritten notes, and more, symbolized the love and care of a global community standing behind them. The children's smiles and excitement reminded everyone of the power of simple acts of kindness to spark joy and hope.

The trip continued with a collaborative effort to support Yayasan Chow, where Dr. Hunt and Anne Tham met with Ms. Ananti, CEO of the foundation, to address the needs of underserved children. Through thoughtful dialogue and generous donations, the Women of Global Change demonstrated their unwavering commitment to strengthening communities through both immediate relief and long-term support.

But the mission didn't stop there. This visit to Southeast Asia also highlighted WGC's solidarity with other global changemakers. Dr. Hunt reflected on the shared vision of empowerment, citing celebrities like Caroline Rhea, who advocates for health equity through her work with the Luskin Orthopaedic Institute for Children in Los Angeles, and Olivia Rodrigo, whose collaboration with Jhpiego has brought life-saving healthcare to women and families in the Philippines.

"We are all connected by a shared humanity," Dr. Hunt emphasized. "When we stand together, we can achieve miracles—whether it's providing healthcare, education, or simply hope for a better tomorrow."

This belief in unity and action is the cornerstone of Women of Global Change. With a mission to empower through education, business, and sustainable development, WGC operates across multiple continents, creating a ripple effect of positivity that has reached over 50,000 families. WGC's International Summits, held in diverse locations around the world, gather business leaders, entrepreneurs, and advocates to collaborate on innovative solutions for pressing global challenges. These summits are not just meetings—they are movements.

After her impactful visit to Malaysia, Dr. Hunt traveled to the WGC Philippines Chapter, where the work continued. From schools to communities, her focus remained on empowering individuals with the tools, knowledge, and support needed to thrive. Whether through educational programs, sustainable business development, or hands-on humanitarian outreach, the mission remains the same: to uplift, inspire, and transform lives.

Anne Tham reflected on the resonance of Dr. Hunt's visit, saying, "Shellie's presence here reminded us of the extraordinary power of compassion and action. Together, we're creating a legacy of hope that transcends borders."

As Dr. Hunt herself put it: "Empowered individuals create empowered communities. Together, we are building a better world—one person, one community, one act of kindness at a time."
