We understand the needs of our families and we meet them right wherever they are to encourage them to support them and pray for them at any given time. Our relationship isn't like any other we Love our families as Christ Loves the church and our goals are to help keep families together because that makes a family stronger by staying together. We help with transportation to appointments we attend staffings and Court hearings and much more our relationship is for life and to reassure that once our families our reunited we help to keep them together by providing classes and training, education to our families by showing how important the Love of Christ is and how we continue to need him in our lives and without him it's impossible to please God.

Refugees must be seen as an essential part of our shared humanity. Today more than 65 million people have fled their homes seeking safety wherever they can find it - nearby communities, neighbouring countries and often new continents. The global response has been a band-aid solution to a humanitarian crisis that needs long term, sustainable solutions. In countries like Malaysia, where refugees are denied legal status, offered few protections and faced with restrictions on education, work and the perpetual fear of arrest; both their lives and their plight remain in the shadows. We're here to change that. Our vision is of a single, shared humanity, where social inclusion is about dignity and choice, not dependence, not charity. Payong Organisation (which is fully supported by Liberty to Learn Berhad) champions 'Equitable Outcomes' for all refugees living in Malaysia. By championing we support refugee initiatives, leverage partnerships, increase advocacy and work towards creating and funding solutions to bring about systemic changes in the education, health and livelihoods sectors for refugees and asylum seekers in Malaysia. With an outcome that all refugees will be able to build meaningful, purpose-driven and successful lives for themselves. Because refugees are in transit in Malaysia, while waiting for resettlement we believe it is critical that we work with and support them to becoming 'transition ready'. Resettlement or repatriation can happen at any point, so all programmes aim to equip them with hard skills/soft skills and tools so that they can navigate their lives during/after transition. Essentially setting them up for success.

Let Me Live is a South Carolina nonprofit corporation dedicated to saving babies by turning the hearts of mothers toward their children. They believe God requires us to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God (Micah 6:8). They began under the name, "Let Her Live"—intending for the reference to the baby's gender to emphasize the personhood of the unborn baby, by reminding people that every baby is a male or female human, not just a thing. For this reason they wanted to include "him" or "her," rather than "it" or "them," in their name. But the feminine pronoun has caused enough confusion among some pro-life people that in 2010 we switched to doing business primarily under the name Let Me Live.

Collaboration with the government and other NGOs to draw maximum benefits from development. To raise people's awareness and support their use of government schemes and resources. Though the organization has a special program forwomen's development, it believes that women's progress should be a factor in every area of work and life, including education, where emphasis is placed on young girls, and healthcare, for the overall well-being of women and girls. We believe in continuous training and orientation for staff members and people. We also have an HR department that regularly organizes internal and external training sessions for staff members of all levels and people on leadership, group building, problem solving, and gender-related matters, among others. To create an efficient human organization capable of acting regardless of where the need arises, even in emergencies. We believe that we must have a strong organization focused on community development, yet flexible and able to accommodate the changing needs of the people. RDT-Vicente Ferrer also stresses continuous dialogue with people and seeks to ensure its programs are useful and practical. An empathetic approach to helping individuals in severe distress due to chronic or acute illness, abandonment, or abuse of any kind.
