Current Project : Art & Craft and Other Activities

Our Challenges
Our Clients and their families face a huge uphill battle against the perceptions in society that they are not capable of any kind of employment , caring for themselves , or taking a role in society .
They have little hope of a fulfilling future , and the prospect for their parents is one of endless hard work, cost and heartache in caring for the Clients.
A lot of companies and conventional foundations that we have made appeals to rejected our plea on grounds that they are NOT important/critical enough to justify the donations / PKIIM does not meet the various conventional criterion set by the foundations . PKIIM continues to face irregular fund inflow despite the increasing resources required to operate.
But PKIIM and its volunteers firmly believe that together with the socially responsible citizens like you/your establishment, we are able to suspend the disbelief and be an agent of change for the Clients’ better life .
