Eat Right to Play Right
At Zurich, being a responsible and sustainable company is at the foundation of our business. We believe in investing for a better future by protecting and giving back to the communities in which we live and work.
Together with the support from the Z Zurich Foundation and One Goal Malaysia, we launched the Eat Right to Play Right (ERTPR) programme with the aim to improve the nutritional knowledge and status of our children. Leveraging on the power of football and Malaysia’s passion for the sport, the ERTPR programme uses football as a platform to educate children on the importance of nutrition as well as instill self-discipline and sportsmanship.

ERTPR Youth Cup
