KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 25 — Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) through its Mobility Programme 2021 will contribute 25 passenger vans to selected welfare homes nationwide with an allocation of RM2.5 million.
In a statement today, TH said the programme, launched in 2016, was aimed at donating dual-function vans that could be used by the local community as passenger vans or hearses.
“Since its introduction, TH has donated more than 56 multi-functional vehicles to selected mosques nationwide which have benefited more than 200,000 people.
“This year, TH will extend the contributions to welfare homes and associations such as orphanages, old folks’ homes and homes for persons with disabilities to help make it easier for them to carry out their activities and programmes,” the statement read.
According to the statement, TH has also allocated RM18.7 million to implement other programmes such as the ‘Ehsan’, ‘Ikhtiar’ and ‘A’fiat’ Programmes.
Meanwhile, TH donated a van for the daily use of the Nur Murni Care Centre in Batu Kawa, Kuching, Sarawak, yesterday.
At the event, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) Senator Idris Ahmad handed over a replica of the van key to the Nur Murni Care Centre chairman Noni @ Noraini Bakiri in conjunction with his first working visit to the state.
