Following the overwhelming success of the first Music4Good concert, which raised RM211,000 to support children in 25 orphanages via OrphanAid and assist the Society for the Severely & Mentally Handicapped (SSMH), this second edition aims to raise even more.
100% of donations will go directly towards providing education, essential aid, necessities, and life-changing opportunities to communities in need. Beneficiaries include:- OrphanAid ensures every child has access to quality education through free SPM tuition, refurbished laptops for orphanages, and a 75% bursary for tertiary studies. In partnership with Rotary International District 3300 Malaysia, it identifies and supports deserving students, with tax-exempt donations channelled via Yayasan Kelab-Kelab Rotary Malaysia (YKKRM) to ensure transparency and accountability.
- Free Food Society provides food aid to anyone in need, regardless of race, creed, or religion. Founded by a group of concerned individuals, it was created to support the growing number of people who lost their livelihoods due to Covid-19.
- Persatuan OKU Sentral champions the rights and empowerment of persons with disabilities through entrepreneurship support, emergency relief, cultural showcases, and initiatives that promote accessibility and inclusion nationwide.
- Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals – Kajang offers vital services such as feeding, sterilisation (TNR), healthcare, and rehoming for stray dogs. They aim to establish a multi-purpose facility that supports sheltering, rehabilitation, adoption, and education
- Society for the Severely Mentally Handicapped – For 40 years, the Society for the Severely Mentally Handicapped (SSMH) has been providing therapy, care, and support to children with severe mental and physical disabilities, as well as their families.

About
the
Polymaths
The
Polymaths
came
together
after
a
chance
meeting
between
Raja
Singham
and
drummer
Siva
Ramanathan
at
a
friend’s
party.
One
casual
conversation
about
music
sparked
jam
sessions
in
a
basement,
bringing
together
professionals
with
a
shared
passion
for
music
–
because
why
not?
“We
just
needed
a
guitarist,
a
bassist…
and
a
better
keyboardist,”
Raja
joked.
“I
like
running
around
on
stage
too
much
to
stay
seated!”
