YAYASAN CHOW KIT

We are a Kuala Lumpur-based organisation providing care, protection and learning support for at-risk children from diverse communities, through personalised interventions that address their education, wellbeing, documentation and long-term development needs, ensuring each child receives holistic and coordinated support to build a better future.

We believe every child matters.

Yayasan Chow Kit is a non-profit organisation that caters to the needs of children and teenagers in and around Chow Kit. We currently run two drop-in centres within Chow Kit and one safe home for children who are in need of temporary guardianship.

One stop Children’s Centre 

Yayasan Chow Kit’s One-Stop Children’s Centre (OSCC) provides a safe, child-friendly space where vulnerable children and adolescents can access holistic care under one roof. The Centre offers integrated services including protection and case management, psychosocial support, education assistance, health and medical referrals, and family strengthening interventions. Guided by a strong child rights and protection framework, the OSCC works closely with families, communities, and government agencies to ensure each child receives timely, coordinated, and compassionate support—so they can heal, thrive, and reach their full potential.
