Teach The Needs 3.0
Every year, there are approximately 10 candidates from Sekolah Tunas Bakti Sg. Besi, an Institute of Moral Rehabilitation, register for Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia, SPM. Sekolah Tunas Bakti is an Approved School institution for the education, training and detention of children established or prescribed under section 65 (approved schools) of the Children Act 2001. All candidates are under Court Order under Paragraph 91 (1) (f) (sent to an approved school or Henry Gurney School) Children Act 2001. However, these candidates do not have proper resources to revise, including textbooks and exercise books. Besides that, lack of educators is one of the reasons since  they do not have teachers to guide them. We would like to help them pass SPM subjects through lessons tutored by college students. We will also provide 10 sets of textbooks, reference books and practice books as study material. We understand the importance of their opportunity in taking this exam because it promises them a better prospect in life in terms of job security, networking, and dignity. This is our noble effort in providing them help that their environment could not because we believe that everyone deserves a second chance in life. We are confident that the effort put in to run this programme will provide them with a broad exposure to the importance of seeking knowledge in the future.

Project Alantic – To create a sustainable tomorrow
The earth is a beautiful place. It provides a natural platform to allow biotic and abiotic survive. It takes as long as 3.8 billion years for earth to create an ecological and biological stable cycle that we have today. In the other hand, modern civilization comes with consequences. Anthropogenic activities such as overuse of the natural resources, pollutions and use radiation.The earth has a 71% coverage of fresh and salt water. Hence, it is important to keep the aquatic ecosystem safe and sustainable. Although there are increases of environmental act and programs going on, there are always a lot more to be done in a normal individual daily life. People beginning to look into the environmental issues but yet they do not have the right knowledge and idea of how conservation works.With the Project Atlantic, we hope to spread awareness on the current issue and topic in the aquatic environment. Next, the green growth has been introduced to the public by the United Nation. The Project Atlantic will be carry out with the guide of the sustainable living goals (SDGs). Thus, the participants can understand and gain certain knowledge how and why is a sustainable aquatic environment so important to majority of the living organism. Beside, Project Atlantic’s syllabus has included the factor of practical living tips. Some hands-on skills will share in the sessions.Last but not least, we hope provide an option to the students to explore the applied science field but introducing and expose the participants the aquatic related careers and letting them experience the mini science conference.

Chicken Coop Project
Temoh is a town located in the Perak region of Malaysia and the orang asli village, (Kampung Temoh) will be the location of the project implementation. Poverty is a major problem among the Orang Asli. A recent news reported that 1,329 Orang Asli children in Perak who are under two years of age suggested that 40 percent were malnourished by two years of age (Malaymail, 2019).  Besides, 70 to 80 percent of Orang Asli children are underweight or stunted in height by school-going age. In order to reduce malnutrition cases among the indigenous group especially young children who needs nutrition for growth, poverty should be eradicated.This project aims to improve the socio-economic status of the orang asli. The “Chicken Coop Project” participant lives in a 2 bedroom house together with his sister’s family of 6, a total of 9 people in the household of less than RM2,000 per month. About 4 years ago, they had a family member die at the age of 17 years old due to malnutrition. Currently, he rears chickens but on a small scale and the mortality rate is high. The overall outcome of this project will help to:1) kickstart and equip the participant with knowledge and skills to raise chicken, 2) provide complete shelter for the chicken so that chicken will not fall sick due to rain and flood, 3) source for alternative feeds to supplement and reduce commercial feed cost low, and4) to help them market the chicken at a competitive price.  Thus, the sustainability of this project is greatly emphasized.
