Pertubuhan Tindakan Wanita Islam (PERTIWI), an organization with over 44 years of dedicated service, focuses on addressing the welfare and needs of women and children. This voluntary organization has played a crucial role in advocating for women’s rights in Malaysia while nurturing and empowering women to maintain their traditional family roles. PERTIWI’s wide-ranging social missions and welfare activities include providing literacy skills, educational awareness seminars, medical aid to remote villages, sponsorships for educating foster children, and skills training for single mothers, among other programs. Its activities are managed by a central committee and various volunteers from diverse backgrounds.

PERTIWI’s Services:
To extend its community outreach, PERTIWI initiated its mobile soup kitchen project in March 2010. This project aims to provide free meals to the homeless and the hardcore poor in Kuala Lumpur’s inner city four nights a week.

While Malaysia has made significant economic progress, the issue is not a lack of food, but rather ensuring that those in need receive proper nutrition and sufficient food regularly. Soup kitchens are crucial in offering nourishing meals to people facing hunger, including children, parents, and the elderly.

The PERTIWI Soup Kitchen project serves the hardcore poor, regardless of their race or religion. By engaging with inner-city communities regularly, additional support programs have been introduced to meet their various needs, including medical services.

The areas served by PERTIWI include Chow Kit, Kota Raya, Masjid India, Masjid Negara, and Syed Putra. The project provides hundreds of food packets at multiple locations based on the number of people in need.

PERTIWI’s Soup Kitchen has successfully created a warm and caring community outreach project where volunteers from different backgrounds come together to reach out to the homeless and hardcore poor, exemplifying unity in diversity.
