Mission Description

Sponsored by Yayasan My First Home




EPIC Homes is EPIC's flagship initiative that aims to build trust and relationships with marginalized communities in order to create cooperative, resilient and sustainable communities through the simple act of building home - addressing the issue of access to safe housing among marginalized communities.

EPIC strives to equip individuals to be able to engage with communities, build trust and relationships via participatory processes in research, planning & implementation with the facilitation of socio-technical & domain experts. Through this, shared experiences are cultivated, which heightens the community, external supporters & overall awareness of our inter-relationships and interactions within the space we occupy.


  We have Built 150+ Homes.

 We have a builder community of over 5,000 volunteers.

  We have worked with over 10 villages across Peninsular Malaysia.

  An EPIC Home only takes 3 - 5 days to build!

THE VOLUNTEERS

This is a public organized build. This event is open to public volunteers where an exciting weekend awaits them! 

THE LOGISTICS

Date: 24th to 26th December, 2022 
Location: Kampung Orang Asli Serigala, Hulu Bernam, Selangor
Transportation: Carpooling 
Accommodation: Homestay 


THE OUTCOME

We hope that throughout the build, volunteers will develop a deeper understanding of how the Orang Asli live, and that volunteers put themselves in the shoes of the community. We're essentially building a closer relationship with the Orang Asli community whilst also strengthening the relationships and dynamics of your team!

THE ATTITUDE

Approach and talk to the family! Strike up a conversation and leave a positive and lasting impression. They are usually shy, especially the women, and they may be a little hesitant to approach you in such a big group.
Be open to new things as different communities tend to work differently. Who knows? You could even learn a thing or two!

    Going into my 3rd build, I have the opportunity to become one of the core team members, therefore I'm able to see the build from a different angle.

    This build is a challenge to us, 50% less builders, one specialist pulled out due to sickness, six modules house, new site!

    In the end, we managed to get it done with quality, thanks to the leadership qualities in each of the core team members. Damon is always outspoken and creative in solutions, Terry being open minded to try new methods, Andrew always shows "for one another" attitude, Raj challenge the unknown and shows ownership. Jo, the youngest among all keep fighting spirit high and always ask for new challenges. Our MB Dennis keeps the team intact, aligned and always being humble. We create healthy competition, provide constructive feedback, great teamwork and a fun team. What I felt most is that we are truly one single team focusing on completing the goal. Really enjoyed this Christmas build!! and get to know great leaders like them.

    Hope to build again with you all next year
