SUSTAINABILITY statement (CONT’D) COMMUNITY As part of our commitment towards Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), the Group collaborated with HOPE Worldwide Malaysia (HOPE), allowing us to participate and involve in activities that created greater social impact and improved our reach to needy community. Our staff gained tremendous exposure on volunteerism and gave them an opportunity to contribute back to society. Our intention is to build a sustainable collaboration that positively impacts the community and enhance the Group’s brand value. We were involved in 2 major activities with HOPE. The first was food distribution for the poor program in June 2019, which was held in Community Service Centre at Sentul. The other was Back to School Sponsorship program in December 2019, held at Mydin Hypermarket in Subang USJ1. The objective of the latter program is to motive children of urban poor community to focus on school work and excel academically. HOPE organised children and youth from beneficial families to shop for their schooling needs in preparation for the new academic year. Our group of volunteers together with the guardians of these children spent almost 2 hours to select and purchase school uniforms, attires, school bags, etc. We have also made monetary contribution to Titian Baiti Al Jannah, a care centre for disabled and abandoned children, and Pusat Jagaan Kasih Sayang Prasanna, an old folks home for poor families, and most of them are bedridden.
