Empowering Rohingya Refugee Kids through Education

As of end June 2018, there are some 73,900 Rohingya refugees registered with United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Malaysia. A huge population of them are children.

These children are deprived of their most fundamental needs: EDUCATION.

In Malaysia, refugee children do not have access to formal education. On the other hand, the cost of private education is often too expensive, making it unaffordable for this community.

Without access to education, thousands of these children are vulnerable to human trafficking, social problems and illiteracy.

Rainbow of Love School: A New Hope

Our NGO, Humanitarian Aid Selangor Society (HUMAN AID) believe that it is our responsibility as fellow Muslims to alleviate the hardship of the Rohingya community in Malaysia.

In 2015, we established Rainbow of Love School as a community-run school that provides basic education for Rohingya refugee and orphaned children. We started with 25 students and two volunteer teachers. Over the years, we are growing steadily and as of May 2018, there are currently 180 students registered to our school. Unfortunately, we can only accommodate 83 students due to lack of funds and capacity.

This school is crucial to provide education, dignity and knowledge to these children. Our school was officially recognized as a learning centre by UNHCR in 2016.
We provide academic lessons as well as religious studies to them. They learn languages (English, Arabic, Malay, Mandarin), Al-Quran, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography and Arts.

We truly believe that education will empower children, their families and the community.
