Google announced a $5 million fund through Google.org to step up its fight against online scams across the Asia-Pacific region.
The initiative will provide resources to nonprofit organizations, educators, and community groups working to raise awareness about digital safety and help protect vulnerable users from fraud.
With online scams becoming more frequent and sophisticated, the fund aims to build resilience and strengthen protections in one of the world’s fastest-growing digital markets.
The program will focus on educating people to spot scam tactics, supporting local partners with resources, and driving innovation in scam prevention.
By funding organizations that understand local communities, Google hopes to reduce the impact of fraud and equip more people with tools to protect themselves online.
This effort builds on Google’s broader commitment to user safety, trust, and responsible technology in the APAC region.
