They are either orphans, abandoned or from broken families and are between the ages of 4 and 18 years old. Agathians Shelter is a legally registered welfare home under Pertubuhan Kebajikan Agathians Malaysia and it’s a tax exempted organisation. In the shelter ran by volunteers, the children get the essentials basic needs such as a place to live, food and education. Their educational needs are also met even though they have missed some years of schooling. In addition, the children have talents and are interested in curriculum activities such as music, arts, dance, sports and information technologies. The boys are being equipped with skills and hobbies as to develop a positive mind-set in their life. The skill set is important for them to discover their talents and help them reach their highest potential.
