The Malaysian Paediatric Foundation was set up soon after the 5th Asian Congress of Paediatrics organised in Kuala Lumpur in 1985. The objective of the Foundation is to encourage research and teaching of paediatrics and child health, and provide financial support to paediatric trainees and paediatricians who wish to carry out research.

The Foundation is also extended to provide Malaysian APSSEAR fellowship for paediatricians from neighbouring countries to undergo training in sub-specialist paediatrics in Malaysia. The Foundation is currently funded by proceeds from the annual MPA Congress.
