KUALA LUMPUR,Malaysia,July 13,2023 -- FBS,an international broker with a presence in over 150 countries,demonstrates its commitment to building self-sufficient and resilient communities by donating over $62,000 to 7 charitable organizations in developing countries. The funds were raised during the holy month of Ramadan and will support approximately 5,000 people from underprivileged communities in Malaysia,Indonesia,Nigeria,Egypt,Turkey,Pakistan,and Yemen.

"Aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),FBS aims to contribute to creating a more prosperous and equal society. Since 2014,FBS has been actively engaged in charitable activities during Ramadan,raising and donating around $1.3 million to more than 30 organizations in Southeast Asia,Africa,and the Middle East,positively impacting thousands of lives. By leveraging the support of our clients,FBS encourages meaningful changes in the world," saysKsenia Molodkina,Strategic Marketing Director FBS.

More than 29,000 traders from 17 countries worldwide participated in the FBS Trade & Aid Ramadan charity promo 2023. The funds were utilized by these organizations to improve the lives of local citizens,including families,students,and seniors.

For instance,the Malaysian branch of MyCare Foundation used FBS's contribution to establish a freshwater fish farm site,empowering the community to generate sustainable income. This project aims to support urban-poor groups in the Bandar Tasik Selatan area of Kuala Lumpur.

"With FBS' invaluable support,we have established a pioneering fish farming project that promises immense benefits for the community. The project's vision is simple yet transformative: as our fish population flourishes,the community will reap the rewards of increased sales. The profits generated from the fish sales will be channeled into communal savings,a visionary financial resource that serves as a catalyst for economic growth within our community,enabling individuals to access funds for various business ventures or personal needs," said Haji Kamarul Halim Sakrani,the representative of MyCare Foundation Malaysia.

Meanwhile,the FBS charity program with Ramadan Memo,an Islamic organization in Nigeria,targets over 3,000 beneficiaries from vulnerable groups,such as widows,orphans,elementary pupils,and students from higher institutions who are financially handicapped.
