YSEALI Alumna Shares Art and Gratitude with Healthcare Workers

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, medical professionals on the frontlines have been working nonstop to ensure that their patients receive the best treatment possible. In order to express gratitude and brighten their days at work,Tee Ee Lyn, a  2018 WLA alumni and the co-chair of the YSEALI Women’s Leadership Academy has launched a campaign to thank Malaysian healthcare workers. The effort is encouraging children, teens, and adults to write thank you notes and create bright, happy drawings that are then collected, printed, and then hung up in COVID-19 hospital wards. To date, 200 submissions have been printed and posted on the walls of the COVID-19 wards in Sungai Buloh Hospital, one of the Kuala Lumpur area public hospitals designated to manage the virus cases.
