Sports Toto’s annual Chinese New Year ang pow donation campaign benefitted 118 old folks homes nationwide during the festive season.
Although it was unable to hold its usual handing out of ang pow and hampers to senior citizens this time because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the company found a way to give without putting its beneficiaries at risk.
“Our beneficiaries are senior citizens who fall under the high-risk category and we simply cannot take the risk of having a public donation campaign this year, ” said Sports Toto Malaysia Sdn Bhd executive director Nerine Tan during the launch of the campaign at Little Sisters of the Poor Care Centre in Kuala Lumpur.
