More than a year after Covid-19, Malaysian soup kitchens, companies still feeding the poor who need help

Founder Datuk Munirah Abdul Hamid told Malay Mail that while Malaysians are a generous bunch, the public can help those in need even more by looking beyond food donations and giving resources to help underprivileged children with their studies instead.

“When the MCO had just started, many of were not aware of the order and the need of staying at home.“At the moment, we are working on vaccine registration awareness which is even more challenging as the communities don’t really understand why it is important to get vaccinated and many of them are referring to unreliable sources,” said Ezzuandi.Residents of two PPR flats in Kuala Lumpur received surplus groceries recently as part of a collaboration between KSK and Lotuss Stores.

KSK has its sights set on reaching out to more needy communities and it launched a food bank in Bentong, Pahang recently to continue its goal to help those living in rural areas. SEED Foundation was set up in 2014 to provide support for some of the most vulnerable communities in Kuala Lumpur, including transgender people and individuals living with HIV.
