ONE Minute Giveback

Join Us in Making a Difference – ONE Minute Giveback at 21ABC

As part of the 21st Asian Battery Conference (21ABC) in beautiful Borneo, we’re proud to continue our tradition of giving back through our ONE Minute Giveback initiative.

This year, we’re focusing our efforts on creating a meaningful impact in the local community of Kota Kinabalu—especially for children in need. It only takes one minute to show you care, but the difference we make together will last a lifetime.

Be a part of something bigger. Let’s spark positive change, one minute at a time

We would like to see as many delegates involved as possible! Join us and be part of something truly special.

Making a Difference—Together

At 20ABC in Siem Reap, Cambodia, we proudly hosted the ONE Minute Giveback, raising over USD $22,000 in donations for the Angkor Hospital for Children. This incredible achievement directly supported critical medical care for seriously ill children, bringing hope to countless families in need. The generosity shown was deeply appreciated by the hospital staff, patients, and their families.

Building on this momentum, we are excited to announce that ABC, in partnership with our dedicated giveback sponsor Sorfin Yoshimura, will once again champion this meaningful initiative at 21ABC. With the collective support of our delegates, sponsors, exhibitors, and speakers, we remain committed to making a lasting impact on the communities we visit.

This year in Kota Kinabalu, we are proud to support two outstanding local organisations:

Seri Mengasih CENTRE

Seri Mengasih is a special developmental school that provides vital educational and life skills training to children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities—without any government funding. Students as young as four benefit from specialised programs that would otherwise be out of reach.

“Every child deserves to have access to education especially children with special needs.
Unfortunately, some students are unable to continue even the most affordable education programmes due to financial hardship.
Raising and caring for an autistic child is a full-time commitment and many parents sacrifice their own aspirations in the process.
We’re seeking support to fund educational opportunities for these parents, so they too can grow, learn, and thrive alongside their children.
.”

Through ONE Minute Giveback, we aim to raise funds to fund scholarships, ensuring they receive the opportunities and future they deserve.

Children’s Home Kota Kinabalu

This caring orphanage provides a safe, loving home to children who are orphaned or come from deeply impoverished backgrounds. While it receives some government assistance, additional funding is essential to provide proper care, education, and brighter futures.

“Children on the streets are highly vulnerable to neglect, violence, abuse, and exploitation. Many suffer from poor mental and physical health.”
— (DOSM, Children Statistics Malaysia, 2023)

Our support will help the Children’s Home continue its mission to protect and nurture these young lives.
