Welfare group organises food and clothing giveaway for refugees and the underprivileged in Selayang

OVER 500 Myanmar refugees and poor Malaysians in Selayang can observe Ramadan without having to worry about food and clothing for Hari Raya, thanks to the Malaysian International Welfare and Humanitarian Organisation (MyWelfare).

The organisation, a registered society that advocates and supports the welfare and dignity of the marginalised minorities in society, held a Ramadan Garage Giveaway event recently providing them with food packets, clothes and toys.

MyWelfare acting president Badariah Abdul said the organisation’s main focus was to provide welfare and support for refugees and asylum seekers, particularly the Rohingyas from Myanmar. (Courtesy of thestar.com.my)
