A Place To Belong : Rebuilding hope, Restoring Dignity For Every Orphaned Child (Phase 1)

Key Campaign Goals

Rebuild and repair dormitories, classrooms, surau, and basic facilities.
Provide safe, clean, and supportive spaces for learning and living.
Create better areas for sports, social, and educational activities.
Involve the community and donors in long-term, sustainable care.

Campaign Story

For more than 30 years, this orphanage and education center in Kelantan has been a sanctuary for orphans and underprivileged children. Today, its facilities — dormitories, classrooms, dining hall, and prayer spaces — are worn down after decades of use.

To ensure these children can continue to learn and grow in a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment, we are launching a campaign to restore and rebuild the facilities at Desa Rahmat, Kota Bharu.

Who Are the Beneficiaries?

More than 80 orphans and underprivileged children who study and live here.
Teachers, educators, and volunteers running programs daily.
The wider community, who also use the facilities for classes, youth programs, and social activities.

How Your Support Helps

Dormitories & Orphan Housing – RM50,000
Classrooms & Learning Spaces – RM35,000
Utilities (Water, Electricity & Toilets) – RM25,000

Activity & Sports Spaces – RM10,000

Together, let’s rebuild hope and restore dignity for these children — giving them a brighter, safer tomorrow.

Renovation Nears Completion, Let’s Finish What We Started!

Assalamualaikum,

We are humbled to share a heartfelt update on Project: A Place To Belong, taking place in Malaysia at PEKAYATIM, Desa Rahmat, Kota Bharu, Kelantan.

The renovation works have now reached a meaningful milestone. The hall, restroom, and walkway roof are fully usable — transforming what was once a worn and tired space into a clean, bright and welcoming place for children who deserve to feel safe and cared for. Only a few final touch-ups and cleaning remain before this space becomes their new home.

This progress represents more than just completed construction. It’s a step closer to giving orphaned children a sense of dignity, belonging, and hope for their future.

Here’s what has been completed so far:

Exterior painting finished, giving the building a fresh new look
Interior hall renovated and spacious, ready for activities and learning
Ceiling structure installed and secure
Covered walkway completed to provide safe passage
New toilet unit fully functioning

Next steps:

Final cleaning and polishing
Electrical safety checks
Installation of curtains, partitions, and furnishings
Preparation for handover or opening ceremony

None of this would be possible without your generosity. But we’re not done yet — your support is urgently needed to complete the renovations and give these children a safe place to belong.

Your contribution can be the reason a child smiles, feels safe, and walks into a place they can finally call home. Together, we can finish what we started and build not just a space — but a future filled with hope.

Wassalamualaikum,

Global Sadaqah Team
