Orphanage Malaysia – Stepping stone living center
While most of us worry about not getting the latest Iphone or latest electronic gadgets. There are people in dire needs of basic necessities than ever. Stepping stones is a shelter for orphanage located at Taman Seputeh. This center is around 1500 sqft and it houses around 150 people.
It was quite a shock when I reached this place. This wooden shack in the middle of wealthy residential area. This place is quite small for 150 occupants and it’s very packed.
Due to religious status of this center, this place has not been receiving any official status as an orphanage and therefore receives no funding from the government. Once a while as for the proximity, the authorities has been trying to shut down this center.
The shoe rack is too large to be taken with a 50 mm lens.
Foods
The children are singing when I reached this place. This less than 15 meters area under wooden roof is the actual studying, entertainment and sleeping area for the female orphanages. It’s quite packed when all the children are assembled together.
While some of the kids are camera shy some are not at all
The reluctant volunteer model
The roof ,foods & the holy bible are only what these kids have in life
Tthis center is in dire needs of donations and supports.
