In general, cleft lip and cleft lip/palate occurs in approximately 1 out of 1000 births.
As part of our efforts to help children with cleft condition, AIA offers financial aid through a collaboration with the Cleft Lip and Palate Association of Malaysia (CLAPAM). Over RM200,000 has been donated since 2013 through CLAPAM, benefitting 198 children who underwent successful corrective surgeries. Additionally, over 1900 children have received special bottles and teats necessary for feeding.
If you have or know of a child who is in need of financial assistance to undergo corrective cleft lip and/or palate surgery, please email us at my.corpcomms@aia.com.
