As our country adjusts to new norms during RMCO (Recovery MCO), low-income families continue to face an uncertain economic impact ahead. With your help, we have provided over RM655,000 worth of food and urgent aid to more than 500 vulnerable families regularly since March through Projek Sinar. As the first phase of Projek Sinar draws to a close, we did a needs assessment survey with these families and it revealed some alarming realities:
Given such difficult challenges, we want to help our beneficiaries Restart and Rebuild their lives. Initiatives in the pipeline include:
-
Helping adults secure Employment, from no job to having a job
-
Delivering Essential food aid to families so no one goes hungry in the meantime
-
Providing data connectivity and/or devices that enable access to learning (including school learning and our existing programs like KidzREAD, LIT, SiberKIDZ, and Digital Parenting) because Education is vital in boosting the life trajectory for these children
