In support of Malaysiaâs recovery, Heineken Malaysia Berhad (HEINEKEN Malaysia) has been distributing meals to communities affected by the Covid-19 pandemic through its HEINEKEN Cares programme. Since the programmeâs launch on July 26, more than 94,000 meals have been distributed to over 7,300 beneficiaries as of Oct 31 this year.
The ultimate goal of the programme is to provide 150,000 meals by Dec 31 to communities affected by job or income loss as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
In partnership with eight non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and social enterprises, HEINEKEN Malaysia has channelled food aid to assist vulnerable communities throughout Peninsular and East Malaysia.
Dialogue Includes All, a social enterprise that promotes social inclusion for people with disabilities, distributed packed meals specially prepared and cooked by a team comprising individuals with vision impairments, as well as those with autism and physical disabilities. The meals were channelled towards households in the B40 group, refugee families as well as the disabled communities and needy folks at various care centres.
