Who are we

Thank you for playing a part in fulfilling Yayasan Chow Kit’s mission. We run three centres in Chow Kit open to children and youth during the day. We operate in partnership with the Kementerian Pembagunan Wanita, Keluarga dan Masyarakat.

Yayasan Chow Kit is a new organisation that developed out of Nur Salam. The foundation was incorporated on 19 January 2011.

Our centres aim to provide a safe and positive space in the high-risk area of Chow Kit and its immediate surroundings.

Our services

YCK’s daycare centre, ‘Taska Baitul Amal’ welcomes families to use the services provided for new- born babies until the age of four. The children will attend Pusat Jagaan Chow Kit from 5-7 years old. Once the children turn seven years old they will be welcomed into ‘Pusat Aktiviti Kanak-Kanak’ and upon reaching thirteen they move on to YCK’s youth activity centre – ‘KL Krash Pad’.

All the three centres provide food and age-appropriate facilities for our children. Yayasan Chow Kit opened the three centres based on a simple premise, to provide a safe and positive space in an area that may otherwise be unsafe, and allow for the children to grow up proud and not worry about the stigma attached to one of Kuala Lumpur’s vibrant and cosmopolitan inner city areas.
