Hope in a time of need: UCSI’s staff and students offer helping hand to flood victims


KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 28 – UCSI Group’s staff and students recently initiated donation drive to help victims who were affected by the recent floods.

Essentials worth over RM20,000 were raised between Dec 21 and 23, and were shipped out to various non-government organisations and groups from Dec 22 and 24.

These items include clothes, instant noodles, sanitary pads, diapers, toilet papers, towels, Covid-19 test kits and drinking water, among others.

The essentials were delivered by UCSI’s staff to Balai Raya MPKK kampung Baru Sg Chua, Lions Club (KL Capital), TDRA, and media agencies who provided aids to victims, such as Sinar Harian and Nanyang Siang Pau.

Other than that, a total of seven students and three staff were also involved in cleaning of houses at Taman Sri Muda in Shah Alam and Taman Sri Nanding in Hulu Langat.

UCSI Group Corporate Affairs Vice President Leong Sat Sing said, “Their loss can be tragic and their suffering can be disheartening.
