Contributions to country

Datuk Nicol Ann David is not only well-known for her talent and success, she also contributes to the country with her kind heart by supporting certain occasions like fundraising, campaigns and charity events.

Although her achievements have shown that she has contributed more than enough for the country to finally get on the world map, she gave a helping hand in donating for those people who are in need of it. Besides other famous celebrities in our country, Datuk Nicol Ann David collaborated with Datuk Lee Chong Wei and other badminton/squash players to pour their generosity to these kind of events. She showed up for the Sapura Kencana Petroleum Malaysia Grand Prix Charity Gala night to raise funds for the National Heart Instituition. There were members of the F1 fraternity, Hollywood stars like Kimora Lee Simmons, socialites and more.

Datuk Nicol Ann David also participated in a fundraising charity bazaar which was held at Bukit Kiara, Kuala Lumpur by the Lions Club. The event went successful and they were happy that she could join and express her kindness. Other global campaigns such as Japan's "Hope & Smile" donation campaign was a part of her contributions as well in helping collecting funds for tsunami and earthquake victims in Japan.

This is definitely an addition and a plus to the country for having a kind-hearted sports icon. There are more campaigns, charities and fundraising events that she anticipated in, but the links weren't working. Sorry guys! Wish I could share more information.
