Tune Protect Group Berhad has partnered with Sunway XFarms to launch the "Grow & Give" initiative, a program that combines employee development with meaningful environmental and community impact.
In this program, employees gain hands-on experience in sustainable agriculture through hydroponic growing and contribute to the establishment of a community farm to promote food self-sufficiency among low-income communities.
The "Grow & Give" program involves 240 Tune Protect volunteers and consists of four sessions. The first was held in May, where volunteers helped support the Petaling Jaya-based Medan Jaya community, home to over 4,000 residents, many of whom face limited access to fresh and nutritious food.
The initiative began with hands-on training at Sunway XFarms, where employees gained practical experience in urban farming, harvesting pesticide-free vegetables, and packing them for distribution to local beneficiaries. Utilizing smart hydroponic farming technology, community farming is remarkably easy to maintain and uses up to 90% less water compared to traditional farming methods.
