A hostel run by the Brothers for underprivileged boys and girls in rural areas to enable them to attend school regularly. It is funded by donations with sponsorship programmes that cover the cost of the children’s stay at the hostel for one year. 4 Kuching Lasallian Foundation Established by the Brothers and the alumni of Lasallian Schools in Sarawak, it focuses on the setting up of tuition centres in as many kampungs (villages) as possible to improve education at the primary school level. 5 La Salle Learning Centre, Penang
A centre for slow learners started by a Brother. It focuses on the educationally & socio-economically deprived children. No fees are charged. Therefore, it is entirely dependent on donations.
