Ros is a single mother with four children. We came to know of her family when we visited her to process her first claim in 2016, after falling sick. We noticed that she has a differently-abled son, Adi, aged 8 then, who is also un-documented. Last year, after we started our Community Center near PPR, we were able to offer creative learning classes to Adi. This May, Ros unfortunately met with a motorcycle accident and fractured her hand, hence was not able to work to support her family. Ros has exhausted her savings trying to pay her daughter’s higher education fees. So Ros planned with her daughter, to make packed foods and to sell to her peers at the Academy. Their little business took off and now they are thinking of their next product! This crisis has prompted them to create other means of earning money, using the PRUKasih claim money not only as relief, but as start-up capital, to generate more sustainable income for the family. The PRUKasih financial education has not only helped Ros, but has been passed on to the next generation, her daughter, who is learning financial planning and business skills. Here we see a rippling impact, as we partner with PRUKasih, to engage and empower families to come out of poverty.

Our first encounter with Encik A was in February 2017. He first sustained an injury to his right leg when he met a hit-and-run accident in October 2016. Unfortunately, his leg didn’t heal properly and he had to seek repeated treatments at the hospital. In addition, his knee fractured when he fell at the hospital toilet! Since then, his leg injury became worse and developed into a serious case of cellulitis due to venous insufficiency which spread to his arms and other leg. He was fired from his job, and his wife worked as a cleaner to bring home RM1000/month to support their 11-year old son. Encik A expressed that even though he had sought aid from different sources, PRUKasih is the only one that helped him. He is extremely grateful for the impact PRUKasih has had on his family, especially in eventually helping him to become the Menteri Besar of his community. He repeatedly tells us that if not for PRUKasih, he and his family wouldn’t have survived till now.

Mr. Udai Anak Atang, aged 43, is married and has two children. Mr. Udai underwent a surgery in March 2019 and was unable to work. His concerns about monthly expenses as well as his pregnant wife were reported to a PRUKasih volunteer who visited them. PRUKasih was able to help him buy basic needs items for the period he was not able to work. He returned to work in June 2019 and on June 27, 2019, his wife delivered twin daughters safely. To this day,they are very thankful to PRUKasih. He added, through a PRUKasih free protection plan, it also helps low-income people feel more secure for themselves and their families especially in the face of unforeseen illness and accidents. As members of the PRUKasih, they are very hopeful that this PRUKasih will continue in the coming year.
