The Hope Branch, an NGO founded by comedian Harith Iskander and his wife Dr. Jezamine Lim, is actively engaged in extending aid to victims affected by the recent floods in Kelantan.
In response to the urgent needs of the communities affected by the recent floods in the east coast, The Hope Branch has allocated a substantial amount (RM120,000 in value) for relief efforts.
The relief packages, containing items such as rice, fresh poultry, vegetables, toothpaste, toothbrushes, wet wipes, gloves, face masks, mattresses, pillows and tudung (headscarves), aim to alleviate the immediate hardships faced by the flood victims.
“Our priority is to ease the burdens of those affected by the floods. We aim to help as many individuals as possible, and we are grateful for the partnerships and contribution that we received,” said Harith.
The two-day operation, centred in Kg Seberang Merbau and Kg Bukit Budu, was personally led by Harith and Dr Jezamine and expected to impact 930-1085 individuals in the two Kelantan villages.
“Based on past flood experiences, other than Kg Seberang Merbau and Kg Bukit Budu, The Hope Branch is also dedicated to maintaining a continuous presence in Kelantan for long term community support,” added Harith, who thanked the sponsors and partners for their participation and contributions to the flood relief efforts.
