There is no real place for many children with autism in normal schools, even in special needs classes. The schools are not equipped to teach and care for them. There are not enough places for everyone. Those with severe autism may not be accepted anywhere at all. Many will drop out of school. Many people will be unable to progress to the next stages of their lives. Many will be unemployed. Many people will be completely reliant on family members for the rest of their lives. Parents cannot help but worry every single day about the future of their children with autism and what will happen when it’s time for them to leave the world.

NASOM gives children with autism and their parents hope for a better future. It's something we've been doing for 35 years. We help the parents in meeting their children's needs at home.

We are Malaysia’s oldest and biggest non-profit, charitable NGO providing autism services. Autism services are highly people-intensive, specialised in nature, and require specialised equipment and facilities. Many children with autism require dedicated one-to-one attention from qualified teachers. As a result, the cost of providing services is high. However, a large proportion of Malaysian households cannot afford to pay the high fees and have no viable alternatives. Similar services provided by private and other centres are far beyond their financial means. For them, there is no other place like NASOM.

Every Ringgit counts.

With every ringgit of your contribution; will help support autism education, awareness, advocacy, operational costs, and, most importantly, allow us to assist families living with autism so that we can continue to give them hope for a better future that they deserve.

All Donations to NASOM are tax exempt under Section 44(6), Income Tax Act 1967.
