Penang Shan Children’s Home (PSCH) began as a dream and
initiative of Dr. S Balakrishnan in the year 2005.
This is a non-religious and
a non-profit, non-governmental organization catering to the needs of orphans,
neglected children, dysfunctional families and single parents.
The home was
built and officially launched on 14th December 2008 by Madam Chan Siew Har.
PSCH’s mission is to maximize the attractive opportunities that are stored in
the children; to make something happen; to change the ways that things are and
to create something that no one else has ever created before for the children,
to explore for opportunities; to provide guidance and course correction;
maintaining focus on being consistent and persistent.
The objectives are both
short and on a long term basis.
The short term objective is to provide all the
children with a safe and supportive environment. The focus will be on the
development of physical, mental, emotional, educational, social and
recreational skills that will create awareness to structure and mould the
child’s future.
The longer term development includes the options that are
available for the child’s future, supporting them to complete the tertiary
education preferably to University level. For those who are unable to complete
the basic education, they would be trained in developing their skills by
educating them in skill training centers. Through home visits and working with
parents, they would like to ensure that eventually the child is reunited with
his/her family thus becoming the backbone of the family.
How to help Penang Shan Children’s Home Association?

The average monthly expenditure per child amounts to
RM400. This includes lodging, education, meals, transportation and pocket
money. Interested members of the public can contact the home.

high running cost. They would be very grateful members of the public or private
