Caritas Malaysia is inspired by the Gospels and the teachings of the Catholic Church. We respond to humanitarian crises, promote integral human development and advocate on the causes of poverty and violence.

The national office works together with the offices for human development in the nine dioceses in Malaysia.

Our Affiliates

Caritas Malaysia is in the process of strengthening and building relationships and collaboration with various organisations to provide practical help and support during disasters and emergencies, and to meet ongoing needs in the community.

Our History

During the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Malaysia-Singapore-Brunei (CBCMSB) on 08 July 2019, the Bishops met with the Caritas staff from the Vatican and Asia for a dialogue. The Malaysian bishops then decided to re-new the lapsed membership with the Caritas federation.
