This project “Care & Share: Food for Children”/ “Kasih & Kongsi” Program untuk Kanak-kanak had two main objectives:
- To provide nutritional food support to the children
- Collaborations for community support
The idea behind the project was to support children aged below 18, Malaysians who are living in Sabah and whose total household income is under the poverty line in 2019, which is below RM2,537.
