Some people still find it unbelievable that someone as accomplished as Julia Chong can give up a top corporate job to start a company with a revolutionary mission. And that is to be the first socially responsible company to pledge 100 percent of the company's dividends to qualified registered charities.
In July 2006, after years of careful planning and conceptualising, Julia Chong's vision became a reality when The Truly Loving Company was formed with the help of co-director, Khaw Chay Tee.
Since then, The Truly Loving Company has embarked on a philanthropic mission to help the less fortunate and needy. Thanks to the support of caring consumers, TLC will be able to support 5 qualified charity partners and the list will continue to grow with TLC.
