This Christmas, the Lone Pine Penang, a Tribute Portfolio Resort is putting out a real treat for guests to usher in the festive season with family and friends.
To launch the celebrations they invited children from the Salvation Army Penang Children’s Home as part of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative.

“In this time of joy and sharing, not only we reach out to friends and family but also to the needy. As part of our CSR responsibility, we are honoured to have the children from the Salvation Army Penang here this evening”, said Gulab.
