Description of Organization

Mission Statement:
YMCA of Singapore is a volunteer-based Christian organisation that seeks to serve and impact all members of the community, regardless of race, language or religion, through programmes, services and enterprises to develop the body, mind and spirit.

Programmes:
The YMCA-Tan Chin Tuan Community Service Programmes are structured and sustained programmes which are organised to bring cheer to the beneficiaries of various VWOs. Beneficiaries include the intellectually and physically challenged, under-privileged and abused children, the hearing impaired, the elderly and the poor. These programmes are all volunteer-driven and allow individuals from all walks of life to contribute meaningfully to the community.

 

Intended use of funds through the YFC 2023 programme

YMCA runs programmes and activities to bring cheer to beneficiaries, groom volunteers and empower youth. Surpluses from our social enterprises are only able to meet part of the running expenses of these programmes. All funds raised will use to augment the surpluses to sustain these programmes.

 

Engaging and involving the YFC participants

YMCA aims to groom volunteers and build capacity in its volunteer corps. YMCA also seeks to build character and cultivate young adults into responsible community champions who are able to make positive contributions to the community.

We welcome all YFC teams to take part in the programmes which they would like to raise funds for. Please feel free to contact us to find out more from us.
