Abstract

The development of the country is not only focusing on the role of government alone. The private sector and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) also play an important role in ensuring that the public benefits from sustainable development. The NGOs play a major role at the grassroots level since they are close to the community to implement the programs that will benefit the community. They do have the expertise and skills to deliver the services to the communities. By understanding the important role of the NGOs, this paper will explore their roles and contributions towards community development in Malaysia. The research was used among members of NGOs in Malaysia about their roles and contributions towards communities. The descriptive analysis will be discussed throughout the paper. This paper will also highlight the future relationship that the NGOs and other stakeholders like government and corporate organizations should focus on creating sustainable development.
