Other Services

Rumah Kanak-Kanak Impian (RKKI)

SSVP operates RKKI which is a home with a conducive study and living environment for underprivileged children in the 4 to 20 age group. Apart from catering to their physical and emotional well-being, major emphasis is placed on the educational needs of the children who are mainly from poor and single parent families. Besides attending government schools, the children also benefit from additional private lessons given by volunteer teachers. It is by empowerment through education that the poor can develop their potential to the fullest, build up self-esteem and come out of the poverty cycle. For more information on RKKI, please contact Alfance Joseph (President, SSVP) at 017 3596 210 or Meera (Home Committee) at 012 6520 871 during office hours.
