A Warm CNY Blessing From STM Lottery to Needy Old Folks
To mark the commencement of this benevolent initiative, STM Lottery organized a launch ceremony on 18 January 2024 at Berjaya Times Square, Kuala Lumpur. The donation campaign was kickstarted by Y.B. Mr. Tan Kok Wai, Member of Parliament for Cheras, in the presence of Sports Toto Berhad’s Chairman Dato’ Sri Robin Tan and CEO Ms. Nerine Tan.
Approximately 3,000 eligible senior citizens, including those from four specially invited old folks’ homes from Kuala Lumpur, participated in the launching ceremony. Spanning 50 cities and towns nationwide, the six-day donation campaign, aimed to benefit a minimum of 18,000 elderly citizens. Each recipient is set to receive an ang pow, a mini hamper and mandarin oranges.
Since its initiation in 1988, this charitable campaign by STM Lottery has contributed over RM25.6 million, benefiting more than 455,000 old folks in need across the country.
