Pelangi Community Foundation was initiated by a small group of individuals
who decided to do something about a specific marginalized group particularly
in need.
The Foundation is a home for people living with hiv / aids (PLWHA) who are
rejected by family and society.
Homeless PLWHA who have been released from Hospitals but still need to
continue medicine intake, dressing of wounds or are at the terminal stage of
AIDS will find a safe shelter.
The Foundation ensures that necessary treatment is administered and also
ensures follow-up treatment with doctors and hospitals. PLWHA are given a
clean and hygienic place to stay and nutritional food to assist in the
recovery process.
The shelter is provided for a period, depending on clients' needs, their
progression in health status and the social reintegration process.
PLWHA at the facility also act as caregivers to other PLWHA who are in
terminal stages and in need of care.
Our target community is homeless PLWHA of all races and ages, discharged
from Hospitals or referred to us by other organizations and non-governmental
organizations (NGOs).
The Pelangi Community Foundation began in September 1998 with no funding
support and has largely depended on the goodwill of individuals, like the
French Community in Kuala Lumpur, the Netherlands Embassy and Stiftung
Umverteilen in Germany. The Foundation has since grown, a reflection of its
need and importance, to serve more homeless persons living with HIV/AIDS.
All our funding is dependent on individual donations and help from the
private community.
