The "House of Matthew" or "Pusat Jagaan Rumah Matthew" was officially opened by Yang Berhormat Datuk Raman the MP for Gombak in April 2006.

Inspired by the burning desire to see the not-so-privileged children enjoy their God-given right to a better education, praiseworthy upbringing and the deep instilling of solid moral values, Pastor Sheila Wright has now materialized her deepest dreams for a greater good.

This vision, which has been radiating in her heart since 1987, has now become tangible reality in the form of a double-storey house,  and it houses at present children between the ages of 6-13yrs old.

However, the true structure of HOM lies not in concrete, brick and mortar; but rather in the firm foundations of tender love and care.

The House is located at No 36 Jalan SG 7/3 Taman Sri Gombak, Batu Caves Selangor. (Click here for location map and direction) This "Home" is a registered body under Persatuan Pembaharuan Hidup Shana Zoe and approved by the Welfare Department of Selangor.

Pastor Sheila Wright is the Administrator together with a "CareGiver" who will also help take care of the children.

Being a non-profit Organization, the House depends on donations received. You are most welcome to contribute both financially and materially towards this home. The home needs Groceries, clothes and household items. However the most urgent need of the Home is to have "our own house". At present we pay rental of RM 1,000-00 and at the risk of being "evicted at any time by the Landlord" we earnestly seek to have this burden lifted from us. Having our own house will be a dream fulfilled.

The Public are most welcome to donate and any monies received must be made payable to "Persatuan Pembaharuan Hidup Shana Zoe (HOM)".

We hope that this "House of Matthew" will be the start of many more "homes" for the future and we invite you to become a part of this Vision and Mission either by direct participation as "donors" or by also being "spiritual partners" through your prayers and Intercessions.

THE CHILDREN — Our Hopes and Vision

We would like to have more children come in but due to the size of the House this number has reached its optimum. The age brackets of these young ones are between 6 –13 years old. They are properly housed in two separate rooms, one for the boys and the other for the girls. Their needs are lovingly cared for by a caregiver or ‘house mother’.

These blessed children are showered with great care and unconditional love. The children receive nothing short of par-excellence in terms of education, with  volunteer teachers coming to the house and giving them free personal tuition; the instilling of  good moral values thus enabling the young ones to cope with their studies and become better students and citizens of the country..

OUR MISSION – Our Fundamental Priorities

1. To provide children from destitute families with a comfortable environment suitable for proper development and growth akin to those of a model home.
.
 2. To provide an atmosphere conducive to learning, and the relevant education, that these children may rise up to become excellent students and contributing citizens.

3. To instill good moral and Christian values in these children that they will grow up to be praiseworthy denizens of the country who live a life of integrity, honesty and righteousness.

4. To help these children overcome their possible inadequate feelings of ‘low self-esteem’ and a sense of ‘hopelessness’, which may have sprouted from their challenging backgrounds, with unconditional love, unceasing care and wholesome self-awareness.

5. To aid the parents and rightful guardians of these poor children through proper counseling and guidance, providing them with better job opportunities and securing for them their basic human rights: so that through their children, they too can now become more confident and purposeful parents.

OUR COMMUNITY SERVICES — Our Future Vision and Plans

1. To organize counseling sessions for the financially-challenged parents, helping them to realize and develop their own hidden potential.

2. To help these financially-challenged parents secure better positions, more suitable housing opportunities and medical facilities.

3. To instill in these parents, through various programmes, discipline, integrity and a sense of purpose, thus releasing their optimum potential.

4. To help these parents, via structured tuition classes, to improve their understanding of Bahasa Melayu and English, as well as any other subject deemed necessary.

ADMINISTRATION

1. The Home is ‘administered’ by the Administrator, Pastor Sheila Wright, who sees to all the needs of the children and the home.

2. The Chairman Ps Michel Wright assisted by the board of Committee Members, comprised of five dedicated members, oversees the intricate running of the home.
