Miftah An-Nur Islamic International School successfully handed over BND6,070 raised through its Eid Packet Fundraiser, benefiting 60
children from Kompleks Rumah Kebajikan in collaboration with Hand4Hand Brunei.
The fundraiser centred around specially designed Eid packets created by Miftah An-Nur students. The packets were made available for purchase by parents, staff, and members of the public in the lead-up to Hari Raya, with all proceeds channelled towards supporting the charitable initiative.
The funds enabled 60 children from Kompleks Rumah Kebajikan to personally select their own Hari Raya clothing and essentials, allowing them to celebrate the festive season with confidence, dignity, and joy.
Unlike traditional aid distributions, the programme empowered the children to make their own choices, from selecting colours and styles to choosing accessories that reflected their individual preferences. The experience offered not only practical support but also a meaningful sense of independence and inclusion.
Representatives from Miftah An-Nur and Hand4Hand Brunei formally handed over the funds during a ceremony attended by members of both organisations. The contribution helped ensure the children could prepare for Hari Raya with new clothing and essential items of their choosing.
Speaking on the initiative, Md Yamin Abd Hamid, Marketing & IT Manager at Miftah An-Nur Islamic International School, highlighted the importance of preserving dignity in charitable giving.
“This initiative was about more than providing material support. It was about giving children the opportunity to make their own choices and experience the excitement of preparing for Hari Raya like any other child. We are incredibly grateful to our students, parents, donors, and supporters whose generosity helped make this possible.”
The fundraiser also provided Miftah An-Nur students with a meaningful opportunity to contribute towards a cause that directly benefited children in need, reinforcing the values of compassion, generosity, and community service.
Miftah An-Nur extends its appreciation to Hand4Hand Brunei and all supporters whose contributions helped make the initiative a success and brought smiles to the faces of children ahead of the Hari Raya celebrations
