onations begin at home. Even a small amount goes a long way for charity, especially now with the pandemic that has caused a lot of grievances to many people and organisations. Malaysia Retail Chain Association (MRCA) is doing its bit to help the needy during these trying times. A fundraising project by sparing your coins for charity is initiated by MRCA to help organisations which are being negatively impacted by COVID-19. Whilst many people save higher value change for a rainy day, the smaller coins are often stored in a pot, drawer or car and then rarely taken back out to be spent. Now you can help to put them to greater use by giving to charity. The donations collected till August amounted to RM11,020 and will be donated to The Salvation Army, Yayasan Latihan Insan Istimewa, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak Yatim Mary KL and Persatuan Kebajikan Warga Tua Manjung Perak. MRCA declared the contributions received by having an independent audit firm to check the total collection before donating the sum to their listed charities.
