Tasputra Perkim will have a Charity Booth at the Trumpeting for Elephants Charity Fair on Wed 14/12/05 from 5pm to 8pm at the Legend Hotel.

What is Tasputra Perkim ?

Tasputra was established in 1987 and is run from a government owned house in central Kuala Lumpur. Tasputra is dedicated and committed to the love and care of children who are physically, visually and mentally disabled. It provides quality care to about 50 children from the ages of 2 to 18 years. The majority of Tasputra's children come from lower income groups.

Tasputra is Malaysia's first Muslim day care centre for special needs children, welcoming pupils and staff from all of the country's races and religions.

Currently there are around 50 children who attend classes there.

Tasputra runs almost entirely on donations and fundraising, receiving a government grant of only M$ 19,000 a year. Their monthly expenses are M$ 32,000 including staff salaries, maintenance of the house and vans, utility bills and food for the children.
