3. Sponsor A Child

Individual donors or organizations may get more personally involved with Shelter by sponsoring a child. It costs at least RM450.00 per month to maintain a child in Shelter. Sponsors may contribute the full sum or part of it.

This amount will help pay for the following: -

• Food, and living expenses
  
• Personal clothing and medical fees
  
• Pocket money and other needs
  
• School fees, books, fees, tuition, uniforms, transport

Donors will receive regular updates of the child. Those interested can call us (603-79550663) or email us at shelter@po.jaring.my.

4. Sponsor An Expense

You can also opt to sponsor Shelter's fixed operating expenses such as the following:

• Assessment rates
• Water bills
• Electricity bills
• Rental of premises

Your sponsorship of expenses will go a long way in defraying our standard operating expenses and help us to channel more funds towards service and child care expenses. Those interested can call us (603-79550663) or email us at shelter@po.jaring.my.
