About Event

Building Flourishing Communities

Heriot-Watt University Malaysia is a global leader in purpose-led education. The university is committed to develop purpose-driven leaders who are future-ready. Besides our world class programmes and global curriculum, our students are required to hone their leadership skills by joining the EmPOWER programme where they discover their purpose and work on practical projects to mobilise that purpose into positive impact on the world.

This year, as part of the EmPOWER Programme, our students have initiated a crowdfunding project to raise funds for 8 deserving Charitable Organisations and NGOs, thereby creating an impact and making a real difference to thousands of lives in Malaysia. Our target is to raise RM120,000 for our EmPOWER Crowdfunding Project 2024.

You are invited to join us to make a difference. #TogetherWeCan make a positive impact on the world.
