On March 12, 2025, Birkin International Hotel in Malacca hosted a heartwarming iftar for 35 orphans and 15 caretakers from Rumah Anak-Anak Yatim Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah Al-Haj (RAYSAS).

The event, held at Birkin Kitchen, featured a pre-festive buffet, traditional performances, and a soulful appearance by Datuk Nora Ariffin, who sang hits like ‘Dilema’ and ‘Suasana Hari Raya.’ RAYSAS, founded in 2002 with support from Tun Seri Setia Haji Mohd Ali bin Mohd Rustam, nurtures underprivileged children.
