Shaping our next generation

The children and youth we support come from disadvantaged backgrounds and face challenges in life and school compared to their peers.

They participate in our programmes through our community partners.

Beneficiaries we have helped:

  • Low-income families struggling to afford school expenses

  • Youth residing at homes without parental guidance

  • Children or youth with health conditions such as diabetes

  • Parents missing out on income to focus on childcare

ā€œDuring the first few sessions, there wasnā€™t much confidence . . . But over time, I just had the strength to do what the instructor could do.ā€

Youth at Singapore Girls Home who gained self-confidence after 5 weeks of Mindfulness sessions

How the ECF Pre-school Bursary helped 2 siblings:

  • As a single parent, their mother struggled to balance childcare, her studies, and finding a job
  • With both children attending pre-school, she was able to find a job and earn income
ā€œSo far, it has become easier to check my sonā€™s glucose levels especially when we are outside . . . He rarely gets infection on his fingers as less finger pricks are required.ā€

Mother of 8-year-old boy who received Glucose Monitoring Systems under Care for Diabetic Children
