In 1991, a few Langkawi ladies got together and held their first Charity Dinner, the proceeds of which went to Sekolah Kebangsaan Kuah. Following its success, the ladies decided to form a social and registered charitable club—Kelab Puteri Langkawi (NGO). Today Kelab Puteri has a membership of around 30 ladies which includes a number of expats .
