Star Media Group (SMG) and Star Foundation’s fundraising campaign for the purchase of medical supplies for hospitals and medical staff will wrap up at the end of today.

It has raised more than RM2,430,831 so far, which includes SMG’s RM1mil pledge to kick-start the fund on March 25 in aid of medical frontliners during the Covid-19 crisis.

Several batches of essential supplies such as ventilators, ICU beds, ultrasound machines and personal protective equipment have been delivered to hospitals nationwide. More items will be purchased and donated after the close of the fundraising campaign.

Donations can still be made today to Star Foundation-Medical Fund’s Public Bank account (31-9984-9230) via bank transfer, credit or debit cards.

Established in 2004, Star Foundation is the charitable arm of Star Media Group and is aimed at delivering meaningful initiatives with lasting outcomes to a diverse group of beneficiaries.
