KUALA LUMPUR: Garmin Malaysia joined forces with MyFundAction, a youth-run non-profit organisation, to provide RM36,551.90 worth of essential items in support of 45 families which were affected by the recent flood disaster.
"At Garmin Malaysia, we admire the compassion of our youths who go out of their own way to help fellow Malaysians through rescue efforts, donations, clean-ups and social media activism. Garmin is proud to partner with MyFundAction and be a part of this colossal effort to offer genuine support so that those affected by the flood are reminded that they are not alone," said Aeco Technologies' general manager, Ivan Ong. Aeco is the official distributor of Garmin Malaysia.
The partnership represents a combined effort on two fronts–Garmin responsible for preparing dry food, blankets, diapers and Covid-19 test kits while MyFundAction steps in to deliver them to the families in need.
MyfundAction chief operating officer, Siti Aisyah Shahid also said that the partnership strives to improve the victims' quality of life during this challenging period spending the holiday season to ensure that the victims can start the new year with their basic needs taken care of.
All items donated by Garmin are based on MyFundAction's request for the most sought-after essentials.
As of today, the organisation is still seeking funds for basic food supply, hygiene kits and ready-to-eat packs.
This partnership is part of Garmin's effort to raise awareness on the impact of the flood disaster while being on the forefront of providing support. In the future, Garmin Malaysia will continue to organise similar initiatives to further expand its boundaries on championing goodwill.
