As part of this partnership, FBS funded a classroom refurbishment project at the Dignity Education Center located in Kuala Lumpur. The monetary donation provided by FBS enabled the school to install air conditioners, video projectors, and school furniture, thereby creating an enriched learning environment for the students. The newly renovated classrooms have already opened doors to more than 50 young learners.

FBS has also ensured that each student's academic journey is equipped with the essential tools for success. In addition to the classroom improvements, FBS provided gifts with preliminary stationery and school supplies, including backpacks, t-shirts, caps, workbooks, and more. These contributions aim to lessen the financial burden on families, boost students' confidence, and empower them on their educational journey.

To celebrate the opening of the refurbished school facilities, a representative from FBS paid a visit to the Dignity Education Center on October 9. FBS’s Representative in Malaysia Aizzat Arfa greeted the young learners and handed over the gifts from FBS. This special gathering celebrates the FBS's commitment to making a tangible difference in the daily lives of the growing generation.

"FBS is more than just a broker and trading platform; we are a global organization that cares deeply about social responsibility and aims to impact society positively. Our partnership with Dignity for Children Foundation is a testament to our dedication to improving access to better education. The FBS team has been very excited to see the young minds as they started using the renovated class area and now have improved learning facilities," said Aizzat Arfa, FBS’s Representative in Malaysia, following his visit to the Dignity Education Center.

In response to this collaboration, Renee Koo, Head of Marketing & Communications at Dignity for Children Foundation, expressed their gratitude, saying, "We are grateful to FBS as they have made a meaningful contribution to our cause. This collaboration will have a positive impact on the educational opportunities available to our students. Together, we are improving the physical infrastructure and nurturing the dreams and aspirations of these young learners."
