KUALA LANGAT, Dec 10 (Bernama) -- Etiqa Family Takaful Berhad (EFTB) has channelled RM135,500 to assist 400 students from the B40 and asnaf (tithe recipients) groups at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sijangkang Jaya (SMKSJ) here who were affected by the recent storm and flood incidents.
The contribution, given through the Back To School 2025 programme and implemented in collaboration with Hawariyyun Welfare Organisation, aims to provide school supplies, including uniforms, shoes and writing materials.
Etiqa Family Takaful Berhad chief executive officer Zafri Ab Halim said they hope the effort would provide the students with the necessary confidence, comfort and support to return to their learning sessions.
He said that through this initiative, EFTB not only provides material assistance but also acts as a catalyst for the students to return to school with renewed vigour.
“Education is the foundation for a better future. When they attend in neat attire and with high confidence, they will be more focused during their learning sessions.
“Education is also one of the most important social investments, and EFTB is proud to be part of this noble effort,” he said during the Back To School 2025 Programme at SMK Sijangkang Jaya today.
Also present were Hawariyyun Welfare Organisation chairman Al Ikhwan Rahmatullah and SMK Sijangkang Jaya principal Mohd Rodzi Abd Rahman.
Meanwhile, Al Ikhwan said the assistance provided today is not merely limited to clothing or school supplies, but is also aimed at restoring the students’ determination and confidence to continue studying in a comfortable and motivated environment.
He said that collaborations with non-governmental organisations (NGOs), schools and corporate companies would enable them to better mobilise welfare efforts in the future.
“We are grateful to collaborate with EFTB in making the Back To School 2025 programme a success, especially in helping students affected by the recent storm and flood incidents.
“For us at Hawariyyun, this initiative is not just about providing school uniforms or equipment, but more towards reviving the spirit, confidence and dignity of these children to return to study in a comfortable and motivated environment,” he added.
