More Details About Us

Located in a bungalow in Banting, Kuala Langat, Rumah Anak-anak Yatim dan Asnaf As-Solihin Kenchong Darat houses 21 girls and 12 boys aged between 6 to 17 years old. This home, wihch moved since December 2007, is safe haven for these orphans and recipients. Although the home looks considerably large from the outside, it is severely lack of basic necessities. Currently the boys eat and study on the floor at the living room due to lack of tables and chairs.

The parquet on the staircase as well as the bedrooms are peeling and in dire need of replacement. The dull walls and grills also require a new paint job due to lack of maintenance and care. The sliding door in the living room is smashed and needs to be replaced. There is a gashing hole above the entrance door due to leakage issues which needs to be addressed.

Bedroom 1 currently has 6 sets of bunk beds which are falling apart falling apart. Mattress and pillows are very old and the room reeks of a mixture of boys sweat and damp towels. What a combination! This room is used by the teenage boys. Bedroom 2 is used by the girls which currently has 9 sets of bunk beds and mattress. During the day, this room is used as a tuition room so the space has dual role.

In teh dining area, currently there is only one small table. The children take turns to have dinner (in 2 rotations). It would be nice to give them a new dining table set, so that they could have their meal together. The orphanage in this home does not have the luxury of watching television or playing computers as they do not own any of these modern technological gadgets. iIt would be bonus for them if they were given the opportunity to experience life like other nornmal kids.

One consideration is the broken sliding door in the living room area.
