Description of Organization

CampusImpact is a social service agency based on Yishun. Since 2006, we have been working to prepare the next generation by helping them develop positive attitudes, pioneering spirits and purposeful lives.

Our Vision: Strong Children, Strong Families, Strong Society.

Our Mission: To provide a holistic approach in character building for youths as they transit from childhood to adulthood, so that they will become useful citizens for the community and serve as pillars of strength for the nation.

CampusImpact’s programmes are categorised into 6 pillars: ImpactCare, ImpactEd, ImpactFamily, ImpactFUL, ImpactReach and the SG Cares Volunteer Centre @ Yishun.

ImpactCare are specialised services available for our clients such as face-to-face Counselling, Art Therapy and Dance and Movement Therapy, providing a safe alternative for our clients to manage their emotions and anxiety.

ImpactEd consists of the H.E.L.P: Helping. Educating. Leading. Parents. programme where we provide parents and practitioners with community support in their parenting journey through talks, workshops, forums, and online webinars. Through this initiative, those who work with young people can gain effective skills and knowledge to strengthen and restore relationships in the family and support children to grow strong.

ImpactFamily are services we provide to families such as through our Parents Advisory Helpline – a free counselling service available in English and Mandarin that helps parents resolve conflicts with their children and parents who are dealing with their children’s behavioural issues.

ImpactFul consists of centre-based programmes with a fruitful curriculum, presence of understanding adults as role models and guidance within a loving environment such as our Study Buddy programme and Learning Curve Education programme.

ImpactReach are outreach programmes out of our centre such as Study Buddy Plus at ComLink@Marsiling, After School Engagement in Schools and Mental Health Workshops.

SG Cares VC @ Yishun is a community-based organisation appointed by MCCY, to grow and coordinate volunteerism efforts at the town-level and facilitate partnerships to bridge the gap between community needs and resources.
The services under each pillar support our vision of Strong Children, Strong Families, Strong Society.

Intended use of funds through the YFC programme

The funds raised through YFC 2025 programme will contribute to CampusImpact’s efforts in providing services to children from lower income families and their caregivers in Yishun, Marsiling and Admiralty. CampusImpact will also be extending our initiatives beyond these towns, as we work with schools to engage youth through our programmes.

In addition, these funds may be used to support CampusImpact’s second centre, to be located at Admiralty Grove sometime in the later part of 2025, where centre’s programmes will be focused on youth work to meet the needs of the community.

Engaging and involving the YFC participants

We were present at the YFC SSA Marketplace and Panel Discussion on 1st March, sharing some of the programmes and services, needs of our children and organisation, volunteering opportunities that can be considered. During the panel discussion we gave insights of how volunteers value add and complement the needs of our organisation and staff, including some best practices and considerations for volunteers to note during the project (e.g. budgeting, fundraising platforms and target audience, timeline and communication methods with staff, etc).

We also conduct zoom sharing sessions with volunteers to give a deeper understanding of the work we do including how volunteers can contribute their time, talent, treasure, voice and network. Volunteers are encouraged to recce our space or watch our corporate video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10TxdoFJoLA) to have a sense of how our centre looks like and visit our IG page (https://www.instagram.com/campusimpactsg/) to be inspired with ideas when curating their proposal for engagement activities with our children.
