Yayasan MySDG was established in April 2022 to foster equal opportunities for underserved communities and accelerate Malaysia’s progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through an inclusive whole-of-nation approach, we collaborate across sectors to drive meaningful impact.
To achieve this mission, the Foundation supports multiple grant programmes including:
The Malaysia-UN SDG Trust Fund, in partnership with the United Nations in Malaysia, mobilises, manages, and monitors resources for large-scale projects that uplift communities.
The MySDG Grants support smaller yet high-impact SDG initiatives, providing civil society organisations with opportunities to scale their work and potentially access the Trust Fund in the future.
These funds operate as multi-donor platforms, welcoming contributions from local and international organisations to help build a more inclusive and sustainable society—one that truly leaves no one behind.
