Shopee Celebrating Its Fifth Birthday by Giving Back


Top-tiered Malaysian celebrities such as Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza, Neelofa, Erma Fatima, Fahrin Ahmad, Irma Hasmie, Datin Rita Sosilawati and Zoey Rahman are coming together in solidarity with Shopee this 12.12 Birthday Sale with the sole mission to help underserved communities across the country.

They will be advocating for causes that are close to their hearts through organisations such as SIMPLYSITI Di Hati, Pertubuhan Kasih Neelofa, Dar Ummul Hasanain, Malaysian AIDS Foundation, Islamic Relief Malaysia, Yayasan Ta’zim and Ukhwah For Ummah respectively. The initiative falls under a brand new #ShopeeGivesBack umbrella charity initiative that the e-commerce platform launched as part of its fifth birthday sale. It has already pledged to support more than 30 charity homes and organisations with plans to scale its commitment further in 2021.

The #ShopeeGivesBack initiative is aimed at creating awareness and driving donations for various charitable organisations to support their respective causes from healthcare and underprivileged communities to the marginalised, including animals. This follows the successful activations of the #ShopeeMAKNA 11.11 Charity Challenge and Shopee MMA Covid-19 Fund.

The Covid-19 pandemic has presented a whole new level of challenges for everyone including charitable organisations as well as non-profit organisations, and many are struggling to stay afloat. Such examples are Zoo Negara and the Langkawi Wildlife Park; both of which were heavily affected by the pandemic. They are in dire need of help to alleviate the financial constraints for provision of food, upkeep and veterinary care. Malaysians can now choose to ‘adopt’ an animal through their official stores on Shopee to help these wildlife centres keep up the good work on conserving and protecting the animal population.

Shopee users can also donate to MERCY Malaysia where proceeds are used to assist with medical relief, ensure food security and provide livelihood protection to those less fortunate during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Malaysians can donate via the Deals, Top-ups & Bills in-app portal or visit https://shopee.com.my/m/ShopeeGivesBack

A Birthday Sale for all Malaysians: Besides rallying the support of Malaysians to help the less fortunate, Shopee is working closely with brands, retailers and sellers such as Vinda, realme, Watsons, Unilever, Philips, Pediasure, L'Oreal, Enfagrow, Nivea, OPPO, Dutch Lady, One Plus, QQ Malaysia, Carlo Rino, Nutox, adidas, Photobook, and Dr Cardin to reward its users with an awesome celebration through great deals, vouchers, games and prizes.

For those who do not have green fingers, Shopee Farm allows one to water their digital plants for it to sprout FamilyMart ice cream! The soft, velvety, FamilyMart Basque Burnt Cheesecake Sofuto is up for harvest daily.

Combining two of its favourites - games and entertainment, Shopee also introduced a new live game show, Shopee Kotak Duit that rewards users with up to RM12,000 in cold hard cash. Hosted on Shopee Live at 9PM every Monday to Thursday by Dato’ Ac Mizal and Fahrin Ahmad, users will be called to answer one simple question and given a chance to unlock one of six boxes.

The host will play mind games to throw participants off guard and entertain the audience with a good laugh. The game show which began on 23 November has since rewarded two lucky users with RM12,000 each. There will also be special sessions happening on 11 and 12 December.
