Our Impact.
Persatuan Kebajikan Rolf Schnyder is a Malaysian society. It delivers the Malaysia work of Fondation Rolf Schnyder, a Swiss foundation established in 2012.
The work sits inside public systems — early computer science, digital literacy, and child safeguarding — from preschool classrooms to senior communities.
Early childhood · Digital literacy
Kids: Bits & Bytes™ — SeDidik
Preschool computer science, with early AI awareness, inside Sarawak’s SeDidik curriculum.
A tripartite arrangement with the Sarawak ministry (KPWK), Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak, and PKRS makes that possible. Fondation Rolf Schnyder is the certified Code.org Professional Learning Partner. PKRS trains the teachers. That is how the work stays inside public education, year after year.
“This is the crucial age when they begin to shape their thinking, making it essential for their development. We are the first state in the world to implement this in pre-school.”
YB Dato Sri Hajah Fatimah Abdullah
Minister, Ministry of Women, Early Childhood and Community Wellbeing Development (KPWK) Sarawak

Teacher training · Child safety education
ChildSafe Malaysia
Safeguarding education for teachers and communities — to recognise, respond to, and prevent the abuse of children. Delivered through people already in schools and childcare centres.
PKRS also supports Nourish Malaysia’s work at SK Damansara Damai 2, so children in that school have a steadier basis for learning.
