Social media has become increasingly effective in recent years at reuniting people with their loved ones, spreading awareness, and fostering community.

She explains how her family needs financial assistance to pay for her father's medical care, particularly his heart treatment.
To help raise funds, she has started a LaunchGood campaign. Her father has reportedly been unwell for a while, and things have become so bad that she has contemplated selling her violin. Up until her friends intervened to stop her, and graciously contributed to support her family.

Endang also mentioned that the family would require a new electric wheelchair as the old one does not fit her father's weight any longer, as well as a hydraulic lifting hoist to help ease her father's movements.
She wants to provide them with RM5k emergency money while she is now spending a month in Jakarta owing to her job.

She also stated that this job will provide her with a substantial and consistent future income, allowing her to support her family.
Also, the money donated via this campaign will undoubtedly aid her family throughout the fasting month of Ramadan, and it is hoped that it would also enable her dad to receive the proper medical care at home.
