The Kalsom Movement (TKM) is a student-led charity organisation that focuses on education inequality in Malaysia. TKM has been established in 1994 and has benefitted over 4,000 beneficiaries across all states in Malaysia! TKM is endorsed and is supported by the Malaysian government through the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Youth and Sports, and the Education Council in the United Kingdom and Ireland (UKEC). Our main goal is to decrease the educational gap in Malaysian society by encouraging university students from wherever they are to help our younger economically disadvantaged Malaysian students to achieve their ambitions.

As part of this year’s initiative, we are introducing a more versatile fundraising activity by developing a nation-based donation drive that will be channelled to the TKM’s main donation drive. Just like Katara and Sokka from the Northern Water Tribe in Aang: The Last Airbender, we as the members of the tribe are hoping to help the underprivileged students just as they are our family members and close friends. As the members of the water tribe, we believe that the spirit of balance and peace in this world could be restored if there is a two-way action of giving and take among individuals. In the tribe’s culture, the ethos of kindness and abnegation are like the moon ray shining on the sea of those in need.

Therefore, we are creating this Ramadan Donation Drive as a fundraising initiative for education empowerment for the economically disadvantaged students from Sabah, Pahang, Selangor, Terengganu, P. Pinang dan Kedah.

This empowerment initiative will be done continuously for a year through:

1) Online motivational camps

2) Guidance from selected facilitators

3) Empowerment of the use of English.

We ask for your kind service to jointly practice the concept of infaq by donating to The Kalsom Movement through our nation’s donation channel!
