A Message From Penang Shan Children’s Home

It is my utmost pleasure to say that Penang Shan Children’s Home has cruised through with great reputation and success which is mainly due to the continuous support and guidance of our dedicated Chairman, Committee and Staff.

We have had overwhelming respond from caregivers, volunteers and sponsors who escalate our growth in terms of sponsoring meals, donations and organising ice breaking and educational programmes and games. The commitment of the committee, staff and volunteers has been overwhelming, as the children come from all walks of background and we need to cultivate a sense of belonging just like the need for food and shelter and education. This would also make the children receptive and motivated. Educators are on the front lines affecting positive changes while seeing that their online classes and homework are met and updated.

Apart from these, we also have occasional Yoga Classes as well as Tabala and Mirdangam classes conducted by our dedicated and benevolent Miss Anne Choon. It has been very challenging but nevertheless we have coped well with the above mentioned warm hearted people. Some who have even upgraded our internet to Unify due to the online google meetings and Classes which were carried on extensively during our current SOP period. We had our water pressure piping and repairs to the Boys/GirIs dormitories done. We also had some desktops/tablet in terms of donation.

YMCA Penang

The Penang YMCA is a community-based non-profit organization dedicated to facilitate and promote the spiritual, mental, physical, and social development of individuals as responsible citizens of our country.

YMCA Penang x Hard Rock Hotel Penang

The YMCA Penang and Hard Rock Hotel Penang under the Hard Rock Heals Foundation aims to continuously empower the local community, especially young people, to improve their lives through music and leadership.

We aspire to engage and develop young talents among underprivileged musically-inclined children and youths from targeted charitable homes (eg. The House of Hope and The Salvation Army Penang Children’s Home) by providing access to music lessons, musical instruments and performance opportunities through the Music School of Hard Rock programme.

Our vision to empower the underprivileged via working with charity homes

The YMCA Penang and Hard Rock Hotel Penang under the Hard Rock Heals Foundation first collaborated in December 2018 in a charitable Christmas party that raised RM13,000 to provide schooling aid for 200 underprivileged children and physically challenged young adults from five NGOs: 

> Persatuan Perkhidmatan Komuniti Taiping (ESDA)

> Chrystal Home, Persatuan Kebajikan Anak-Anak Yatim LMSTP, Taiping

> Persatuan Rumah Kebajikan Penyayang Ren Ai, Sungai Petani

> NTA School for the Refugee Children (Rohingya Children’s Work),  Alor Setar

> The Salvation Army Penang Children’s Home

> House of HOPE

Ideology

The Music School of Hard Rock is the first-ever in Malaysia (and also probably ASIA). The whole idea is to empower and foster:

Leadership

Mentorship

Buddy Systems

Discipline

Responsibility

Mission filled mindset

Exposure

…to young people through the power of music.

Teachers would be Mentors and in return, students will be future mentors too.
