With COVID-19 cases escalating in the country, working from home and learning from home are some of the things that no longer remain an option but have become essential.

Sadly, a lot of students from the B40 category who have been told to learn online, are unable to do so due to lack of facilities like laptops.

Understanding this, Bukit Gasing assemblyman Rajiv Rishyakaran together with StandUp Malaysia have started a campaign called #Laptop4Siswa to collect and distribute laptops for tertiary students in need.

“We are calling out to generous people out there to donate a laptop, either brand new or used, to these students. We also encourage cash donations which can be used to restore some of these laptops if need be,” he said, as reported by Soya Cincau.

Help needed

Unfortunately, application for new laptops are now closed but the organisers still need your help to provide the necessary for those who've already sent in their requests.

If you wish to help out by donating laptops, contact 03-79547490/014 -669 1320.
