Siti Ramat binti Matdon, a resident at Kampong Penabai received a charity donation from Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah (Yayasan) through its Committee of Social Care Project for the Elderly and Needy Families (PAWEK).
The presentation of the donation took place at the recipient’s house.
Haji Brahim bin Haji Ismail, Managing Director of Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah presented the donation with total of $5,000 to the recipient.
Siti Ramat, 77-year-old widow relies only on the $250 old-age allowance she receives every month from the Community Development Department (JAPEM), Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports. She is currently taken care of by her 51-year-old son and wife.
To lessen the burden of Siti Ramat, PAWEK also handed over several equipment, including a wheelchair and mattress. Yayasan will also be carrying out renovations on some parts of Siti Ramat's house in the near future, due to the house's poor condition.
