Youth-led initiative aims to raise funds and awareness for Motor Neurone Disease
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 10 March 2026 - A group of A-Level students from Methodist College Kuala Lumpur (MCKL) will be hosting the Mega Sports Carnival '26 on 28 March 2026 at the MCKL, Kuala Lumpur campus, in collaboration with MND Malaysia (Motor Neurone Disease Malaysia). This event is to raise funds and increase awareness for individuals affected by Motor Neurone Disease.
The student-led initiative is organised by Lee Yi Ying, Siah Kai Jing, Chu Yi Shyian, Muhammad Murtaza Karimi, Sarveshrau, and Lee Yi Hui as part of the Service Learning component of their A-Level programme. The project aims to combine sports, community engagement, and education to support a meaningful social cause.
Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive neurological condition that affects muscle movement and significantly impacts the quality of life of patients and their families.
"We wanted to create an event that not only raises funds but also increases awareness among young people about Motor Neurone Disease," said Sarveshrau, one of the student organisers. "Through sports and community participation, we hope to encourage more people to learn about MND and support the important work done by MND Malaysia."
The organisers are also proud to announce sponsorship support from Yakult Malaysia, whose contribution helps enhance the event experience and support the fundraising efforts.
The sports carnival will feature several Under-21 sporting categories, including:
- Basketball (3v3) — RM40 per team
- Badminton (Singles & Doubles) — RM20 per team
- Table Tennis (Singles) — RM15 per person
- Football (7 players per team) — RM50 per team
- Volleyball (6 players per team) — RM40 per team
