Funds Raised Will Support Provision of Tablet Devices for Students in Need

The charity run initiated by Muar Member of Parliament Syed Saddiq Syed Abd Rahman successfully concluded, raising substantial funds that will directly contribute to providing tablet devices for underprivileged students. The initiative, which spanned 170 kilometres from Putrajaya to Muar, garnered significant public support, surpassing its initial fundraising target.
Charity Run Objectives

The "Larian Kesyukuran" (Gratitude Run) was designed as a charity mission to support the welfare of residents within the Muar parliamentary constituency. Beyond the provision of food baskets, a key objective was to address educational needs by supplying tablet devices to students who require them for their studies.
Fundraising Achievement

The four-day event, commencing on July 16 and concluding on July 19, successfully raised RM650,959.2. This amount significantly exceeded the initial target of RM200,000, indicating a strong community response to the cause. Syed Saddiq affirmed that 100 per cent of the collected funds would be allocated to welfare assistance for Muar constituents.
Public Engagement and Support

The final leg of the run saw approximately 2,000 local residents gather to welcome Syed Saddiq at Laman Maharani in Muar. The outpouring of support was noted to extend beyond Muar residents, with individuals travelling from surrounding areas, such as Batu Pahat, to offer moral and financial contributions. This widespread engagement highlights a positive public perception of such initiatives by elected representatives.
