B40 families to receive aid through collaboration between Zurich Malaysia, Z Zurich Foundation and Epic Society

Kuala Lumpur, 19 May 2020 – The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a major shift in the way people live and work. The evolving socio-economic situation has been disrupted as people adjusted to new norms, while those who rely on manual or daily wage work have suddenly found themselves with intermittent or no income. In response to the pressing needs faced by low-income communities, Zurich Malaysia together with Z Zurich Foundation has stepped in to provide support and  assistance to impacted Malaysian families in the B40 category.

Z Zurich Foundation has donated RM 1 million to Epic Society, a local non-profit organisation, to boost the COVID-19 Collective for Orang Asli initiative; a two-  pronged relief and recovery programme for the Orang Asli communities. A portion of the funds is allocated to supplement ongoing relief work, which focuses on the  distribution of essential food items as well as hygiene kits containing items such as sanitisers, soaps, face masks and over-the-counter medicines. The aid will be distributed to approximately 4,000 Orang Asli families in Peninsular Malaysia from now until June 2020.
