JOHOR BAHRU, Nov 12 (Bernama) -- Yayasan Sultan Ibrahim Johor (YSIJ), through a strategic partnership with Yayasan Siti Sapura Husin, has contributed 2,000 sets of desks and chairs to six Johor state government religious schools to improve their learning environments.
Yayasan Siti Sapura Husin chief executive officer Syed Hussain Syed Junid said the foundation chose YSIJ as its Johor partner based on YSIJ's proven track record and extensive efforts to support the welfare of the people of Johor.
“The collaboration between Yayasan Siti Sapura Husin and YSIJ was driven by their shared priorities, particularly in empowering education, supporting the asnaf and providing medical aid,” he said in a post on the official Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar Facebook page today.
The contribution handover ceremony was held earlier today at Sekolah Agama Kebun Teh, with YSIJ senior manager Shah Reza Md Kanafe presenting the items to Johor State Islamic Religious Affairs Committee Deputy Chairman Anuar Abd Manap.
Also present were Johor Islamic Religious Affairs Department (JAINJ) Humanitarian Development Management Sector Senior Assistant Director Ahmad Hesamuddin Mohd Tahir, who is currently serving as Deputy Director of Islamic Education in the department's Islamic Education Division, as well as principals from the six beneficiary religious schools.
YSIJ also expanded its welfare outreach to teachers and students at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Aminuddin Baki in Johor Bahru, contributing essential equipment for the school's sick bay, which Shah Reza presented to the school's principal, Hairuniza Mohsin.
YSIJ is the official welfare foundation founded by His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, to channel impactful assistance to the people of Johor in areas such as education, health, community welfare, and disaster relief, irrespective of race or religion.
