Food Relief During "Movement Control Order"

Food for the Hungry International Malaysia cares for every member of the society, no matter what their background or situation may be. Our food relief during the COVID-19 pandemic period involved passionate group of volunteers coming together and providing a charitable service for those who need it most. We covered Kg. Samparita, Kg Lingkabungan, Kg Liyu, Kg Tokis and Kg. Kirangawan of Kota Marudu, Matunggung of Kudat, Ranggu of Tawau, Kepayan of Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan. Lend a helping hand and join our efforts today.
Redistribution of Portable Water Filter
Clean Water for Better Living
This is an awards winning device invented by our Advisor and Expert Mr. Robest Yong. It is simple, portable, efficient and affordable water filter applicable in challenging sites that does not require tap pressure or the use of electricity to power. Five sets of the water filter were given to residents at Kota Marudu whereas six sets each were sent to Ghana and Rwanda, Africa in conjunction with the Africa Conference of the Food for the Hungry International Federation.
Children Core Nutrition Dietary Supplement Drink; Hygiene Pack, Childhood Learning Centre; and Orphanage
Providing the Best Possible Start
In helping to build the Samparita Community Service Centre, through it we have helped the children with nutritious supplement drink for optimal physical growth; hygiene packs for oral and skin health; books and tutoring for better minds. At Hope Village, Kg Laya-Laya, Tuaran, we partly funded an Orphanage which had been handed over and named “Sabah Methodist Children’s Home” as the operator.
Virgin Coconut Oil Community Project
Community Economic Empowerment
The VCO pilot project started in the year 2011.The objective was to help the needy becoming self supporting through income generating projects. Training was given to a group of villages to produce virgin coconut oil on a small scale basis. In the beginning, we assisted with the small scale production workshop, packaging and marketing. They have since been able to handle this micro-enterprise independently.
Empowering Off-Grid Villages with Solar Lights
Let There be Light
No electricity in her village has been a reality for Inggai Sungging, a 56-year-old semi-literate grandmother, who recalled the difficulties of studying during her younger days that led to her dropping out of school at primary 5 because it was difficult to study after sundown. Not wanting the next generation to face the same reality as she did, the grandmother of twelve from Kampung Paus, Ranau enrolled in Solar Barefoot College where she spent 5 months in India to become a solar engineer and bring electricity to her village, made possible by FHI Malaysia and SWEPA (Sabah Women Entrepreneur and Professionals Association).
Technical and Vocational Education and Training, TVET
Make a Difference in the Community
Food for the Hungry International Sabah Malaysia help the less-fortunate by linking our outreach area school leavers in poverty with TVET scholarship programs. We had facilitated the enrollment of 5 youth from Kota Marudu in a professional welding academy at West Malaysia with two of them a success story plying their trade and becoming role models in their communities. We will continue this linkage service as and when needed on a case by case basis nearer to originating villages at TVET centres preferably located within Sabah.
