“ We can’t help everyone, but Everyone can help Someone”
Ronald Reagan
In Media System, we not only strive to make every detail count and in delighting our customers, we also believe in giving back to the society whenever we can. This can be seen from many examples, such as the activity that we participated at Sree Narayana Mission Home, in collaboration with Bugis Junction and Marine Parade’s Rotary Club.

Most of these residents are wheelchair bound and are abandoned by or comes from low-income families.
About the Event
This mini event involved playing Bingo with the Home’s residents, interacting with them as well as an hour-long karaoke session.
How were we involved?
As the Home does not own a Karaoke system, we brought in the various karaoke equipment required and set it up for the event, as well as helping to man the control booth throughout the event.
Not only that, when we visited the home’s auditorium, we realized that the current sound system and design might not provide enough coverage and may not be in the best working conditions, thus we decided to redesign the sound system for them, at no cost.
Thus, for Media System, we believe in reciprocating the love and things we get from our clients and giving it back to the society in whatever way we can. Seeing the smiles on the residents’ faces are the biggest sense of satisfaction that we derive from our work.
