Retailers raise funds in support of single mums hit by pandemic

A SURVEY by the Selangor Women Empowerment Institute showed that a majority of single mothers earn less than RM3,000 a month, while 40% were forced to take unpaid leave or close their businesses during the movement control order period.

With this in mind, the Malaysia Retail Chain Association (MRCA) launched the “Love Touches Lives” charity project until Sept 30 to raise funds for single mothers affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
