Ibraco brings year-end cheer to Sarawak’s remote villages through ‘charity without borders’ - Focus Malaysia

KUCHING-based property developer Ibraco Bhd has concluded 2024 with a meaningful contribution to Sarawak’s remote communities by sponsoring the 11th ‘Charity Without Borders’ event from Dec 12 to 15.

Organised by Kelab Cabaran Pacuan 4 Roda Bintulu and Hope Place Kuching, the initiative was supported the Penan villages of Long Tikan, Long Betao, Long Bee and Long Jekitan in Ulu Baram, Sarawak. It was officially flagged off by Telang Usan state assemblyman Dennis Ngau.

As the main sponsor for food aid, Ibraco donated 165 boxes of essential supplies and 250 Christmas treats for children while providing crucial relief and festive cheer to these underserved communities.

The donations complemented on-going efforts to ensure the villagers had access to essential supplies, hence, enabling them to celebrate the holiday season with added joy and support.

“We are proud to be part of this humbling initiative by Hope Place. At Ibraco, we believe in giving back to the community, especially where needs are most urgent,” commented Ibraco’s managing director Datuk Chew Chiaw Han.

“Our goal is to improve the quality of life for these communities and contribute to a brighter future for their generations.”

Hope Place founder Kevin Wan expressed gratitude for the collaboration given the Charity Without Borders initiative is aimed at bringing hope and relief through much needed assistance to the underprivilege communities.

“This year’s Charity Without Borders have been a tremendous success but our mission doesn’t stop here,” enthused Wan.

“We’ll try our utmost best to find the means and ways to improve on future Charity Without Borders mission so as to elevate the livelihood of these communities in need regardless of race and religion.”

Ibraco’s hands-on participation in the distribution of supplies further underscores the group’s commitment to supporting communities in need.

The success of the event was also made possible through inaugural support from the state Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Ministry as well as the Sarawak State Health Department (JKNS) which helped expand its reach to maximise its positive impact.

Ibraco will continue to demonstrate its unwavering commitment to corporate social responsibility. The company remains dedicated to fostering meaningful change through unity and compassion while working to uplift remote communities across Sarawak. – Dec 27, 2024
