NetApp Malaysia Gives Back to Community

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia—May 22, 2012 — NetApp Malaysia recently visited the Taman Megah Handicapped and Disabled Children's Home to spread warmth and cheer to the lives of the children from the home. NetApp Malaysia also made a donation of RM3,000 for the upkeep and sustenance of the home and the children.

Andy Khoo, Country Manager, NetApp Malaysia & Brunei presented a mock cheque of RM3, 000 to Mr. Cheah Siong Nyin, one of the home’s trustees. The donation was accumulated through the generous donations of NetApp’s trusted partners, suppliers and distributors during its new office opening on April 2, 2012.

To date, NetApp has donated RM6, 000 to the home over a period of 6 months, with plans in the pipeline to sustain its charitable efforts in the coming months.
