If you have always wanted to volunteer and help out in any way you can, you can do so now with a new MySukarela app. Launched by the Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MCRS), this first of a kind platform is for volunteers, hosts and donors to participate in various NGO activities efficiently.

With support from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), MRCS’ partner in the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and The Asia Foundation, the MySukarela app provides Malaysians with a more seamless way to continue to do good during and beyond the pandemic. Through the app, interested volunteers may offer their assistance to organisations in need of voluntary services based on their preferred location and time.

MRCS is also collaborating with Yayasan Malaysian Humanitarian Coordination & Action Hub (Yayasan MATCH), to encourage NGO’s to come onboard on the MySukarela platform and provide volunteers with more variations of humanitarian work. To further encourage and supplement the need for volunteers, MRCS also signed an MOU with AirAsia Academy to enable volunteers to access training and competency development before their deployment in any humanitarian mission.

The launching event yesterday (5th of December) and was officiated by Datuk Dr Hishamshah Bin Mohd Ibrahim, Deputy Director-General of Health (Research and Technical Support) Ministry of Health, Datuk Wira Dr Hj Bahari bin Datuk Abu Mansor, National Deputy Chairperson, of the Malaysian Red Crescent Society and Tuan Haji Hakim bin Hj.
