The Movement Control Order (MCO) enters its final 10 days in Malaysia, and there are still many who need assistance due to the restrictions placed. The Covid-19 scare has plunged many lives into disarray. Thankfully, there are people who have stepped forward to help the needy. We’ve compiled a list of 8 ways for you to contribute.

COVID-19 Grocery Aid

The brainchild of entrepreneur Inbaraj Suppiah, the Covid-19 Grocery Aid aims to raise funds to prepare 100 Grocery Aid packs worth RM100 each to be distributed to selected families who are in serious need.

Hi guys, some friends and I are raising funds to prepare 100 #COVID19GroceryAid packs worth RM100 each to be distributed to selected families who are in serious need. If you’d like to contribute, checkout the crowdfunding page here bit.ly/COVID19GroceryAid. Thank you so much!

Inbaraj’s team has joined forces with MyGroser.com to handle the supply and delivery. This is an initiative by a group of Malaysian professionals and entrepreneurs living in Taman Desa, connected mainly through startup events. The team noted that within their own neighbourhood, there are families affected by the MCO, deprived of the basic groceries.

Institut Onn Jaafar

Journalist Charles Mohan’s NGO, Institut Onn Jaafar have been providing food for the homeless and refugees in the heart of the nation’s capital since their inception back in 2014.

The MCO hasn’t stopped their Jom Breakfast sessions that provide food to those housed in the Pusat Transit Gelandangan KL.

Our Jom Breakfast program continued successfully at Pusat Transit Gelandangan KL despite MCO. Thank you to @yayasankebajikannegara for giving us the permission. Serving the underprivileged and homeless in any circumstances will always be IOJ’s priority.

Masala Wheels

This food & beverage social enterprise is not new to helping those in need. With the Covid-19 pandemic, however, they have gone above and beyond their call of duty to provide meals to the needy, including students who are stranded in their hostel accomodation. They also provide meals to the medical frontliners, welfare homes, refugees and the homeless.

The Petaling Jaya based restaurant has since delivered 4039 meals in the last week alone.

Mercy Malaysia

Mercy Malaysia plans to import 20 ventilators for selected government hospitals across the country. This organisation has traversed the world in aid of the many who need humanitarian aid.

In the last two decades, Mercy Malaysia has provided humanitarian assistance and programmes in 32 countries, in crisis and non-crisis situations. The organisation has also evolved into a full-fledged humanitarian organisation offering the full spectrum of humanitarian services, from emergency response to rehabilitation and recovery, mitigation and prevention, and disaster preparedness.

If you’d like to donate to their cause, click here.

Refuge For The Refugees

This NGO aims to support the livelihood of refugees in Malaysia who have also been similarly affected by the MCO (those who have lost jobs, lost an income to bring home food, etc.) by raising at least RM30,000 to support 500 refugee families.

According to their Facebook page, a donation of RM60 would be able to support one family/week. Refuge For The Refugees is joined by several other NGOs to raise the amount, namely Tenaganita, Dapur Jalanan Kuala Lumpur as well as Liga Rakyat Demokratik.

Look them up on Facebook here.

Apart from these, are many donation drives out there looking to help the needy in Malaysia. While it is important to lend a hand if you are able to, it is equally critical to do your due diligence before contributing financially, particularly if it involves transferring funds into an individual’s bank account.

Having said that, if it is an organisation or individual you trust, the best thing to do would be to give. There’s no amount that’s too small!
