FBS, a leading global broker, has sent philanthropic support to needy
families across Malaysia during the holy month of Ramadan. Through partnerships
with Dignity for Children Foundation and SUKA Society, FBS collectively helped
over 900 people nationwide.
“At FBS, we are grateful to
our charity partners for organizing such important Ramadan projects, which
allowed us to improve the lives of many significantly. Our collaboration serves
as a powerful reminder of our mutual ability to bring about positive change. Working
together, we are not only addressing hunger but fostering a sense of hope. FBS
is looking forward to continuing our support and reaching out to as many
individuals as possible in their time of need,” said Aizzat Arfa, Official Representative of FBS in Malaysia, as he
commented on the FBS’s Ramadan charity.
Over the past ten years, FBS and its traders
have supported vulnerable communities with food and necessities during Ramadan.
Since its first Ramadan charity initiative in 2014, FBS has donated over $1.3
million to philanthropic projects across Southeast Asia, Africa, the Middle
East, and beyond.
This year, monetary
contributions from FBS have been channeled to two Malaysian charities, SUKA
Society and Dignity for Children Foundation. With the FBS’s support, they
organized on-site Ramadan gift-giving initiatives. Donations from FBS were
turned into essential grocery packages and heartwarming festive hot meals for
more than 400 Malaysian families facing challenging life circumstances. Ramadan
gifts ranged from indispensable kits to vital food supplies, offering financial
relief to families in need and enabling them to celebrate the holy season.
Renee Koo, Head of Marketing & Communications at Dignity for
Children Foundation, expressed her appreciation on behalf of the organization,
stating,
“We extend our deepest gratitude to FBS for their generous donation of USD
5,000 towards supporting our students’ families during the holy month of
Ramadan. Contribution from FBS will have a significant impact on the lives of
those we serve, enabling us to provide much-needed assistance to families
facing financial hardship. We are thankful for the FBS’s commitment to making a
tangible difference in the lives of vulnerable communities. Dignity is honored
to partner with FBS in our shared mission of promoting dignity and
empowerment.”
“During
the holy month of Ramadan, we are glad to work together with FBS to embrace the
spirit of giving and to think of the less fortunate. Through FBS’s generous
support, we have been able to impact the lives of 36 children without parents,
provide assistance to 14 foster refugee families, and offer support to 130
human trafficking survivors. The beneficiaries we work with are truly grateful
for the aid, as they can celebrate this special month with lifted spirits. We
appreciate this collaboration and hope to continue working with FBS as our
partner in protecting and preserving the best interests of marginalized and
vulnerable children in this country,” said
Sarah Teo, General Manager of SUKA
Society, highlighting the significance of the collaboration.
