    The organisation has been working for underserved communities in both Peninsular and East Malaysia over the last 10 years. It addresses the real needs of communities, ranging from basic needs to access to education, livelihood, and economic empowerment.

    The other recipient of the grant is the Peninsula Malaysia Orang Asli Association, which is also a non-profit organisation founded by Orang Asli community members. The organisation will use the funds for restoring and upgrading school facilities, such as classrooms, libraries, computer labs, and other essential amenities, in the Slim River District area. The organisation also supports the communities by providing flood assistance, healthcare, food supplies, and native gatherings.
