SOME 40 children from needy families in Datuk Keramat and Sungai Pinang were a gleeful lot when they received school uniform vouchers at a back-to- school programme organised by the Jalan Maklom Residents Association in Penang.

The event, held for the second time by the association, was aimed at helping the B40 group that is affected by the pandemic.
