Kitafund is a crowdfunding platform for medical, humanitarian, and emergencies, managed by Kita Global Group Sdn. Bhd. (1343946-D).

We started in 2014 as Skolafund, a crowdfunding site that aims to help students, especially the less fortunate, raise funds for higher education and higher education-related opportunities.

Kitafund serves as a crowdfunding platform for fundraising that allows campaigners to create and manage their own fundraising campaigns. Kitafund does not guarantee or act as a provider of medical funds as we will only cover expenses for campaigns up to the amount of the available donations. Once the donations are fully used, Kitafund will not cover any additional costs. Thus, our role is connecting campaigns with potential donors as well as facilitating individuals and organizations in launching their fundraising campaigns, providing them with the resources needed to reach their goals. Campaigners can set up a campaign, share their stories, ask for donations, and they are required to do responsible campaign management including transparent fund disbursement and share credible updates out of it.

Kitafund is operated by Kita Global Group Sdn. Bhd. (KGG), a private company limited by shares, under the Malaysian Companies Act 2016. Besides providing campaigners a platform to make their own fundraising campaigns, Kitafund also allows donors to contribute to charitable causes. KGG charges an operating fee for each donation made through the platform. The operating fee charged by KGG was properly informed to donors prior to the making of the donation, aligned with the transparency expected from campaigners. It allows donors to decide on whether Kitafund is the best place for them to donate. As a private company, KGG is financially audited annually by a credible chartered accountant to ensure our transparency, accuracy, and reliability.

We enable users from various countries to raise funds and make donations for diverse needs, from medical to non-medical, for humans and other living creatures. With its international reach, Kitafund can facilitate crowdfunding campaigns from different nations in the region, providing opportunities for individuals and organizations across the world, and is currently growing rapidly in Asia, to receive financial support from a global community.

One of the most important operational considerations for KGG is accepting and disbursing donations in various currencies. Under Malaysian exchange control regulations, KGG may accept donations in Ringgit Malaysia (RM) from Malaysian residents and foreign currencies from non-residents. Non-residents are not able to donate in RM, and resident donors are not permitted to donate in foreign currencies. Furthermore, KGG can only disburse donations outside Malaysia in foreign currencies because disbursing in RM is prohibited. In the spirit of compliance, KGG was getting legal advice from prominent private practice on the fundraising and disbursement process, making sure it was in accordance with the governing law in Malaysia.
