Kuala Lumpur, March 2026 – In a meaningful show of commitment towards uplifting underprivileged children, POPULAR Book has contributed RM30,000 to support the programmes of The Budimas Charitable Foundation.
The contribution was presented during Children’s Carnival 4.0 @ POPULAR 2025, held in conjunction with BookFest @ Malaysia 2026, a platform that celebrates learning, literacy, and community engagement.
This collaboration underscores a shared vision between POPULAR Book and Budimas to create meaningful impact in the lives of children from underserved communities. The funds will go towards supporting Budimas ongoing initiatives, which focus on providing access to education, enrichment programmes, and holistic development opportunities.
Expressing appreciation for the contribution, a Budimas representative added,
“This contribution goes beyond funding, it is an investment in the future of every child we serve. With partners like POPULAR Book, we are able to reach further, do more, and give children not just support, but the confidence and opportunity to build a better life for themselves.”
The Children’s Carnival also served as a vibrant platform to engage young minds through interactive activities, fostering a love for reading and learning while raising awareness about the importance of supporting underprivileged children.
As Budimas continues its mission to uplift and empower children across Malaysia, contributions from partners like POPULAR Book reaffirm the collective responsibility of organisations and communities in shaping a more inclusive and equitable future.
