Precious Gift Home was founded by Mr Albeat Morris and his wife Leena Anthony in September 2002. The Home was set up with the aim of providing food, shelter, clothing, education,tender love and care to orphans, abandoned and underprivileged children within a loving family environment.
Apart from public donations, this Home supports the children by raising funds through charity dinners, and Food Fun Fairs. Precious Gift Home has been given financial support from the Budimas Foundation.
Currently, there are 17 children under the care-taking of Precious Gift Home. The boys, coming from either Chinese or Indian families, are as young as 4 years old and as old as 18 years old. Most of the children were from single parent families; others were abandoned by their parents.
Apart from two of the 18-year-olds, all the boys are currently attending schools in different parts of Ipoh.
