Maybank Singapore Expands Ramadhan Relief, Aiding 2,500 Beneficiaries

Maybank Singapore has launched the 2026 edition of its Regional Ramadhan Relief Programme, supporting 2,500 beneficiaries across the city-state. The initiative, introduced in 2013, provides essential groceries to lower-income families and seniors, enabling them to prepare for the holy month with dignity and peace of mind.

This year’s programme is delivered in collaboration with 12 Malay-Muslim Organisations (MMOs) and Grab, scaling up community support through a shared resource model. Jamiyah Singapore and Muhammadiyah premises were activated for rations packing, while PERTAPIS and Wisma Geylang Serai served as distribution centres. Grab mobilised over 150 driver-partners to deliver hampers to more than 900 households, reflecting the strength of collective community action.
