Help protect our schools by sponsoring face masks to our students and teachers

About SMK Bugaya

Today SMK Bugaya has over 1600 students. Majority of the studentsare staying inthe city and the archipelago of Semporna. Most of the students are from low-income families with joint parental income below RM3,000. You can see that students come to school mostly by walking or staying at the school hostel. However there are some students who come to school with chartered bus and car.

The students’ socio-economic background do play a huge role in their education as some parents may find it hard to provide enough necessities for their children. Most cases that occur in our school is that students have to drop out because they wanted to help their parents with providing enough basic needs in their own house. Hence, it will be such a huge help if we were able to get all the mask required for our school.

About The BIG GIVE 2020

Due to the global pandemic COVID-19, all schools in Malaysia were abruptly closed and students have been made to learn from home since Malaysia imposed the MCO on 18 March 2020.

Months have passed and students and teachers have been struggling with effectively learning from home. Therefore, the Ministry of Education began allowing students and school staff to return to school in June. However, our battle against COVID-19 is not yet over until we find a vaccine.

As cases are on the rise again, face masks have been made compulsory effective 1st August and we want to ensure that our nation’s children are protected. 100% Project has launched a Nationwide fundraising campaign called The Big Give and we are partnering with Mangosteen to provide our students, teachers and school administrators with FREE reusable cloth face masks to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in schools.

Mangosteen is a social enterprise that is working with a community of mothers from vulnerable communities (B40, Orang Asli, etc) to make reusable cloth face masks.

Overall, there are nearly 5 million students enrolled in MOE primary and secondary schools in Malaysia- click on this link to view stats - Quick facts 2019_Malaysia Educational Statistics

The Big Give’s ambitious goal is to raise funds to provide at least 1 million reusable face masks to schools across Malaysia, protecting all our students and school staff.

With only RM10, you will be sponsoring a reusable face mask to a school AND providing a mother with the means to support her family.

How The Campaign Works

Step 1 - Schools apply to fundraise for FREE reusable face masks

The school or any member of the public can nominate a school on our Big Give website. No criteria is needed to apply for the fundraiser. The school will only need to give us their details and the no. of masks they require.

Step 2 - 100% Project fundraises for the school

The schools that have applied for these free reusable face mask will be listed on 100% Project platform. 100% Project will rally the public - individuals, corporates and small businesses - to raise funds for our schools. The minimum donation to sponsor 1 reusable face mask is RM10.

Step 3 - 100% Project delivers reusable face masks to the school

Upon achieving the target amount, 100% Project will deliver free reusable face masks to the school with our partners.

Attention: Calling all School Principals and Teachers

We are inviting all school principals and teachers to nominate their school to receive our free reusable cloth face masks. There is no criteria. Just fill in the details of your school and the no. of reusable cloth face mask you'll require in this Google Form.

We are looking to work with all Ministry of Education departments - JPNs and PPDs to ensure all SOPs and approvals are complied with in order for schools to be the beneficiaries of this initiative. We respect all your hard work and we strive to support you in providing all our schools with the resources they need in this challenging time. Please reach out to us at [email protected] if you have any questions or requests.

Yours sincerely,
