Abstract

Various parties, including the government, private organizations, and NGOs manage childcare institutions nationwide. The welfare services provided, such as care and protection, play a crucial role in supporting children. This study was conducted to determine the willingness of individuals or organizations to provide assistance or contributions to the welfare of orphans and the poor at Darul Akhyar. The study employed a quantitative research design and involved 110 respondents from the state of Terengganu, selected through simple random sampling techniques. Data were collected through questionnaires, encoded, and analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26. Descriptive analysis was used to measure the mean scores and standard deviations. The results of the study indicated that GLC companies and private individuals are interested in supporting orphanages and the poor. Not only do they express interest, but they also actively contribute. For instance, this study facilitated the contribution of carpets for the convenience and use of residents in the surau, especially the children in the institution.
