On a bright Thursday morning, the 15th of February, 2024, at Vauxhall Gardens Community Centre, an extraordinary coincidence brought together GoodGym's dynamic duo, Sean, embarking on his inaugural GoodGym adventure, and the seasoned volunteer Mikhail. Not only were they united by their commitment to the community, but they also shared a unique bond – both had family homes on the same street in Kuala Lumpur, adding an intriguing layer of serendipity to their meeting. Together, they turned the task of food preparation into an hour of joy and efficiency, slicing bread, portioning margarine, and organizing hamburgers with flair. As they wrapped up, a delivery from the Felix Project turned the scene into a feast of generosity, destined for grateful foodbank clients. Their mission was a lively blend of fun, fellowship, and shared backgrounds, making life better for everyone with a touch of home from Kuala Lumpur.
