“There’s more in me than anyone can see.”
We believe all students deserve access to academics and artistic learning, regardless of their socio-economic status, race, and religion.

Ingat tak masa kat sekolah dulu, korang pernah tak…
Semua ni kitorang dah biasa dah. Tapi, sekarang lain skit.

Everyday, ada macam-macam battle kat kawasan rumah kitorang.
Berlambak hantu yang kacau kitorang sampai tak larat nak battle.
Pastu yang Covid nie pulak. Kitorang tak boleh belajar,
tak boleh keluar rumah. Payah betul.
Huhu…penat kan? Kitorang pun camtu la…

dan pendiam.
Bila dia datang ugut, saya rasa takut dan tak nak tengok mata dia. Just nak bagi duit dan lari.
Boleh tak tolong kitorang power-up dengan makanan kegemaran?
Pilih 3 jenis makanan kat sini untuk power up!
Padan muka hantu tu!
Tapi, mesti dia datang balik. Sebab hantu ni suka kacau, Asyik penat battle je, nak buat camane? Pastu, sebab pandemic, kitorang tak boleh nak belajar. Tak reti nak Zoom la, Google Meet la. Seronok jugak kalau dapat belajar online!
Tapi buat masa ni, kami takde smartphone, takde internet. Lemah semangat!
Boleh kamu tolong?
You’re able to read this right now because you had access to education and the internet.
Don’t you think that all children should have that same access?

Studies show that they have a high tendency to drop out of education and become part of the social vices statistics. The recent pandemic has made this case worse by completely disconnecting them from education and their support system.
These students who do not have enough food on the table, are expected to have mobile devices for remote learning. They face serious challenges in leading a normal and sustainable life if there is no intervention done now.
GoodKids Malaysia has been providing emotional and educational support for these children & youth but we are only able to reach 0.02% of them now with our manual system and limited capacity.
To widen this reach, we are developing
GoodKids Digital Academy
Providing children and youth access to digital literacy, self empowerment, and mental health content for free.
The academy also targets to identify deserving children to provide them digital devices and internet connectivity for them to continue learning. Make a difference in our children’s journey of learning now by contributing to our GoodKids Digital Academy.
