About

Charis Old Folks Home is an NGO-run aged care home founded in 1998 by Charis Church and relocated to Mantin in 2013. The mission is to provide shelter and compassionate care to destitute elderly individuals - residents are typically those left without family members to care for them, abandoned, or unable to afford private nursing care. Services are provided free of charge, funded by donations and community sponsorship.

Care & services

Residential care, medical assistance, nutritious meals, mental health support and counselling, and respectful funeral arrangements when needed. The home runs across two physical locations in Mantin: 16 Taman KS (primary) and 150 Jalan Sri Damar 8. Beds are not published as residents are accepted on need-basis rather than enquiry.

What families should know

Charis is the right answer for a specific situation: families with an elderly relative who has no financial means and needs shelter / compassionate care, OR donors looking for a JKM-licensed NGO eligible for tax-deductible giving (LHDN approved). The home holds JKM licence N/PJB WT 07/2022 and LHDN tax-exempt approval - meaningful credentials for an NGO of this size. Not a fit for families seeking commercial nursing services with private-room amenities or specialist clinical capability.

How we determined this licensing status

JKM licence: N/PJB WT 07/2022. LHDN tax-exempt approval: Ref 01/35/42/51/179-6.8488. Registered as Pertubuhan Kebajikan Amal Charis Mantin Negeri Sembilan. Founded 9 April 1998 by Charis Church; relocated from Hulu Langat to Mantin in June 2013.

Licensing status can change — licences expire, transfer to new operators, or get renewed under a different legal entity. We cross-reference public sources to be as accurate as possible, but always ask to see the physical certificate during your tour. For JKM, ask for the Perakuan Pendaftaran Pusat Jagaan. For MOH, ask for the CKAPS approval letter.

Operators: email your certificate to hello@seniorlivingmalaysia.org and we will upgrade this listing to a Verified ✓ badge showing the certificate date. While you're at it — one line on cultural fit (halal kitchen, surau, Mandarin-speaking staff, dietary accommodations) helps the families who specifically search for that.
