Sharing interesting stories on acts of kindness in the spirit of giving to UTM.
1. Through salary deductions ranging from RM1 to RM5, 164 staff of UTM are making monthly contributions to the UTM Endowment Fund. It is an amazing sacrifice to UTM, no matter how small the contribution may be. It is not the amount that matters but their sincere ‘act of kindness’ is making a difference to the lives of students in UTM who are in need. A reflection of a true UTM DNA. Something to be proud of! Alhamdulillah.

2. Yesterday morning, as a last minute effort, a simple whatsap was sent to one of the top corporate figures I know. Amazingly, the simple message touched the heart of the corporate figure, ending in a RM 100k donation to UTM Endowment (of course t’ru the company CSR fund). Alhamdulillah. A noble gift indeed!

Two different stories in terms of monetary value but both are noble acts of kindness and a remarkable spirit of giving to make a difference. May Allah accept their kindness with the best rewards, insyaallah

We will not stop this fundraising drive. It will continue beyond Royal Gala Dinner, and anyone can contribute, at any time with any amount. Thank you all
