We curate, design and/or fund programmes and research to understand the root causes and underlying issues behind some of the social challenges in Singapore and the United States, and partner like-minded organisations to pilot innovative and scalable solutions that could bring about long-term, sustainable changes to the social sector.
Our programmes have focused on helping disadvantaged families break out from inter-generational poverty and giving every child or youth an equal opportunity to maximise his/her potential, regardless of his/her socio-economic background. We have also supported efforts to promote a more inclusive and caring society, by raising awareness of vulnerable communities and seed-funding projects to meet their diverse needs. Some of the programmes we have designed or supported include: |
