Assunta Children Society, Petaling Jaya

AdACS is a charitable organization managed by the Sisters of the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary (FMM) with the help of volunteers. The original program, known as Assunta Foster Care, was initiated in 1966 by Sr. Theresa Gier, FMM who had since passed away. Her compassion towards the welfare of the poor and orphaned children arose when a mother died while giving birth to her tenth child. Thus began her dedication to the task of seeing families to love, care and foster children who had lost their parents or were abandoned by their families.

In May 1994 the Assunta Foster Care was registered as Pertubuhan Kanak-Kanak Assunta (Assunta Children Society). Assunta Children Society was set up as a Learning Centre, a move that enabled us to progress from fostering children to the direct tasks of protecting, caring and supporting them while they lived with their families.
