Intended use of funds through the YFC 2023 programme

We will use it to subsidise the cost of our programmes and services to meet the needs and address social issues faced by our beneficiaries.
This will take the form of in person or hybrid workshop and day camps to enrich the learnings of our children and youths during the school holidays. Funds raised could be used to purchase course materials for our students with learning difficulties and groceries for home essential items.

 

Engaging and involving the YFC participants

We will organise several e-meet over zoom to introduce our organization, fundraising and engagement portfolio, appointment as the SG CARESS Volunteer Centre@Queenstown for 2022 and past projects with YFC teams.

This will be followed by in-person site visit to our centre. They can also take part in our ongoing activities to get a taste of who are beneficiaries are under the safety management measures.
