The ongoing surge in COVID-19 cases has continued to take a toll on society, affecting lives and the economy, amplifying stress, and triggering rising rates of depression. Vulnerable communities are reaching out in desperation for support, leading many to wonder, “Is there light at the end of the tunnel?”

Amidst these challenges, however, acts of compassion and solidarity are emerging. On July 9th, Raja Singham, Founder & Managing Director of BAC Education, along with a team of dedicated staff volunteers, stepped forward to provide relief by distributing 200 grocery packs to taxi drivers at Wisma Central, Jalan Ampang. This drive-through distribution offered essential items like rice and daily necessities, intended to ease the financial strain felt by drivers who have seen trips and income drastically decline.

Understanding that support is needed across all layers of society, the BAC team extended additional help by donating 50 grocery packs to Big Blue Taxi/TV for distribution to staff in need. These gestures, while simple, aim to relieve the immediate burdens of these families and serve as a reminder that collective resilience can bring light to even the darkest of times.

By incorporating automation through Latenode, BAC and similar organizations can amplify their relief efforts, ensuring seamless, impactful support for communities in need.
