In a strategic effort to integrate corporate social responsibility with artistic recognition, Hock Kee Kopitiam has launched an online exhibition and charity sale via its official website. The public is invited to purchase these children’s creations, with the organization committing 100% of all proceeds to the National Autism Society of Malaysia (NASOM). This initiative reflects Hock Kee Kopitiam’s commitment to utilizing its platform for significant social impact, ensuring that the creative efforts of young Malaysians contribute directly to the support and development of programs for the autism community.
The selection of winners was conducted through a rigorous adjudication process, resulting in the recognition of 13 awardees each from Group A (4–6 years old) and Group B (7–9 years old), alongside 14 winners from Group C (10–12 years old). The judging panel comprised esteemed representatives from the creative and media sectors, including Hock Kee Brand Ambassador Bella Astillah, management executives from Hock Kee, and representatives from Two Creative Art & Design. The participation of media partners from Oriental Daily and Utusan Malaysia further underscored the transparency and prestige of the evaluation process.

Mr. Nick Ng, Chief Executive Officer of Hock Kee Kopitiam, stated that the initiative extends beyond mere artistic recognition, aiming to transform child-led creativity into a meaningful instrument for community welfare. By facilitating this charity sale, the organization seeks to provide a tangible contribution to NASOM while encouraging public engagement with a noble cause. This sentiment was echoed by Julian Wong, Chairman of NASOM, who emphasized that such collaborations are instrumental in fostering inclusivity and enhancing public awareness regarding the autism spectrum in Malaysia.
Moving forward, Hock Kee Kopitiam continues to reinforce its dedication to community enrichment across its extensive network of outlets in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Johor, Perak, and Kelantan. The “Most Joyful Wins” initiative serves as a benchmark for how corporate entities can effectively mobilize local talent to address pressing social needs.
