Cat City’s Night to Shine ✨
KUCHING, SARAWAK – What do you get when you mix glowing lanterns, cultural vibes, and real community impact?
Lantern Charity Walk 2025 — and it’s about to set Cat City on fire (the good kind 🔥).
Organized by JCI Kuching, this year’s theme “Reunion in Cat City” is more than a walk — it’s a bold, beautiful call to reconnect with our people, our roots, and our purpose.
🐱 Why Cat City?
Because Kuching isn’t just famous for cats — it’s famous for heart.
“This event feels like a family reunion at sunset,” says Janice, the event’s lead. “And we’re making it open to everyone — no matter who you are or where you’re from.”
🧨 Lanterns.
🕯️ Stories.
🎶 Cultural energy.
🔥 It’s giving Malaysia, united.
🚧 Real Talk: It Wasn’t Easy
First-time organizers. Admin chaos. Delayed launches.
“We almost gave up,” the team admits. “But we didn’t. We learned, we adapted — and now we’re ready to light up the city.”
Now that’s the grind behind the glow.
💥 This Isn’t Just a Walk — It’s a Wake-Up Call
When you show up for this event, you’re supporting more than steps and selfies. You’re backing powerful, homegrown projects by JCI Kuching:
- 🍱 Food Hero – Feeding B40 families with dignity.
- 👩⚖️ Pink Wings Protection – Empowering women to break cycles of abuse.
- 🧸 Borneo Puppet Clown Story Carnival – Edutainment for early childhood care.
- 🌍 Sustainable Development Award (SDA) – Honouring changemakers across Malaysia.
📢 Every lantern you carry sparks real change.
