Parkson Corporation Sdn Bhd has volunteered to help out on the Educare 2006, caring and sharing program for needy students.

Let’s go back to a little history on Educare. Venerable B. Saranankara Thero initiated Educare in 2001, with an objective in mind: to ease the burden of parents by distributing educational items to students in need.

Educare is mainly to lend a helping hand to those in time of misfortune and students whose parents earn minimum wages.

In the beginning of 2001, this program has successfully raise educational items to 800 needy students. Educare 2005 has provided educational items to over 4000 needy Malaysian students.

This year, we aim to help 5,000 needy students irrespective of race and religion from 74 government schools, 14 Hospitals of Malaysian Children’s Aid Society (MACAS) and 8 orphanages & NGOs throughout Malaysia with educational items from school uniforms to stationery sets.

How you can help:

Please  help us change the lives of these children by donating educational items at the Educare collection area. We will be providing  collection bins in all Parkson stores nationwide (except Parkson Suria KLCC). Your contribution can help these children lead better lives.

You can also pledge you support by purchasing school items via Parkson Online Mall.  Click here to donate.
