Selfless Together
Education Center
At Selfless Together, we are dedicated to offering more than just formal education. We instill kindness and compassion in our children, recognizing that each child holds the power to shape the world.
We engage our children in community service like providing food to the homeless and visiting hospice centers. As we move forward, we plan to arrange additional child-friendly activities. Our belief is simple: the most effective way to nurture kindness in children is by demonstrating it firsthand.
Sustenance Support
Amidst the pandemic, we initiated weekly food aid for 50-70 struggling families. This commitment persists as we validate needs through home visits and calls, driven by our belief in equitable support.
Empowering Education
Since 2020, we have empowered 80 refugees children with free education, bridging the gap for those denied access. Our dedicated team of four teachers imparts English, Mathematics, Science, and Bahasa Malaysia, aligning with the Malaysian curriculum.
Personalised Outreach
Through home visits, we delve into the lives of the less fortunate, fostering profound connections and understanding. This approach allows us to pinpoint their needs and extend targeted assistance effectively.
Holistic Health Support
Our collaborations with local health clinics and organizations enable us to provide comprehensive health benefits such as health education, essential health screenings and informative sessions on contraception, family planning, and pre-pregnancy guidance.Sustenance Support

About Refugees
Refugees are defined as people who escaped war, violence, conflict or persecution and have crossed an international border to find safety in another country. Only being able to leave with the clothes on their back, they are forced to leave their homes, possessions, jobs and loved ones.
No financial stability
With no stable income and a big family to feed, it is very common for teenage refugee boys to start working as early as 13 years old to help support their families. To survive, they would need to do odd jobs and work unofficially which makes them vulnerable to labor abuse as they are not protected legally by law.
Lack of citizenship
The effect of not owning a citizenship leads to individuals not having access to education and health. They are unable to enroll into public schools and are not entitled to free medical health care. In addition, they are not allowed to work, own a license, or even open a bank account. On top of that, refugee children are at heightened risks of being victims of children trafficking.
Child/Teenage marriage
Refugee teenage girls often fall victims of child/teenage marriage due low socioeconomic status and lack of education. The United Nation has labeled child marriage as a human rights violation, however this is still a persistent practice among the refugees and those of lower socioeconomic status. Many studies have shown that child marriage not only causes profound distress to young girls, but also shown to increase risks of complications in pregnancy, infant mortality, domestic abuse, sexually transmitted infections, cervical cancer etc.
