Sports Toto Malaysia has announced that it will donate to old folks’ homes for the Year of the Tiger through its 2022 Chinese New Year donation campaign.
This year’s 35th annual Chinese New Year Ang Pow Donation Campaign will commence from Jan 20 to 24, 2022 and it aims to benefit over 4,700 senior citizens at 123 old folks’ homes nationwide.
“With regret, we are still unable to hold the donation campaign for the public due to the pandemic. Therefore, we will only donate to the old folks’ homes to reduce the risk of spreading the virus,” said Sports Toto senior communications manager Giam Say Khoon.
Since the inception of Sports Toto Chinese New Year donation campaign in 1988, the company has contributed over RM22.5 million worth of ang pows and hampers to more than 414,000 senior citizens in the country.
The charitable campaign is part of the Sports Toto’s Helping Hands programme, a corporate social responsibility initiative to support various social sustainability projects such as national sports development, festive donations, food bank project as well as environmental conservation campaigns.
