A Fabulous Fundraiser with Kevin Burke & Friends

by WILD RICE Ltd

On November 3rd, I will be performing at the Wild Rice theatre in Singapore raising much needed funds for this wonderful not-for-profit organisation, whose mission is to provide an open forum for the shared experience of theatre - celebrating our diversity; reflecting on the problems and possibilities of our times; and presenting productions that inspire, challenge and entertain. The theatre extends deep into the Singapore community nurturing talent from 5 years old. They also allow middle aged bankers to occasionally let their hair down for a great cause! So I would massively appreciate any donations in aid of this theatre, which like many organisations, has had its challenges during Covid, but hopefully is now emerging out of this difficult period. Thank you! Love, Kevin Burke Show Details: FAGHAG https://www.wildrice.com.sg/event/28699-faghag-2 Wed 3 Nov 2021, 7.30pm The Ngee Ann Kongsi Theatre @ WILD RICE 107 North Bridge Rd #04-08 FUNAN, Singapore 179105

Dollar Match: Season Of Giving

by Canossaville Children and Community Services

All donations to the Season of Giving campaign shall be eligible for dollar matching by the Singapore Government and Tote Board up to cap of $250,000 per charity. Every year, we all look forward to a special occasion. For some it could be a birthday, for others, a festive season such as Christmas. While we all celebrate these special occasions in our own ways, many also choose to give and share with others who need a little bit more help. At Canossaville Children and Community Services, our programmes and services are open to our children and their families all year round, with priority given to those from disadvantaged backgrounds. Education is at the core of what we do and our Canossian Circle of Care provides the supporting structure to children through a preschool, after-school care as well as a child development unit. This can only be made possible with the support of donors like yourself. We advocate for sustainable giving all year round to support all our programmes and services. In reality, donors tend to only donate at the end of the year during the season of giving. We acknowledge this and humbly seek your kind support for us to build up enough donations to sustain our programmes and services through the year. Thank you for not forgetting us during this season of giving. Your special thoughts warm the hearts of our children and their families under our care.

12I Coy Fundraising for New BBHQ

by The Boys' Brigade in Singapore

Dear Former Boys, Primers and Alumni of 12th Independent Company; Hope you are keeping well and in the best of health. A few of our former 12I Boys/Primers/Officers are intending to do a special fundraising project for the new Boys' Brigade Headquarters located in 10 Kwong Avenue. BBHQ is moving to a new campus after several decades at Zion Road. As we've been impacted by the BB ministry, we have decided to adopt a room/hall in the new BBHQ, for which an appreciation plaque will be placed outside the room. It will be dedicated to our former 12I BB Captain and Officer Mr Jonathan Ng Joo Foon, for his ministry in nurturing generations of men and women through the BB, and presenting this special 'gift' to him next year in 2022, his retirement year, potentially with a physical event once the restrictions from the pandemic have been eased. We have decided to target a fund-raising target of $20,000 in the first instance, and hope to raise it by the end of 2021 (31 Dec 2021). We hope to attract donations of $250/$500/$1,000 per former BB Boy/Primer. Of course we will welcome any amount nonetheless. If possible, Please let Gareth or Oliver know once you have donated by Facebook messenger so we can also invite you for the naming event when conditions permit hopefully in 2022. All donations are tax deductible at 250%.

Hope in the Dark: Funding the Fight Against Sexual Violence

by AWARE

We all know someone who has experienced sexual violence-or else we are that someone. Every week, new incidents of sexual assault, workplace harassment or voyeurism are reported. It's sad, disturbing, frustrating. This year, AWARE is redoubling our efforts to tackle sexual violence. We address the issue on many fronts - both attending to assault's aftermath, and proactively nipping it in the bud - because that's what it will take to effectively end it. We know this from a decade of running Singapore's only dedicated Sexual Assault Care Centre (SACC). Help us to: - Ensure that SACC meets rising demand for its services. We receive some institutional funding, but it's not enough for us to keep up with the many survivors coming forward to receive trauma-informed support - Empower members of the public to sensitively educate their children and support each other. We aim to expand our Birds & Bees parents' sex education programme and Sexual Assault First Responder Training - Conduct important research into under-examined areas like tech-facilitated abuse Let's focus on real change, and get closer to ending violence for good. All donations will be matched 1:1 by the Tote Board and government. The above impact statements are for illustrative purposes only. All donations received will be used to support AWARE's programmes and services under the HITD fund.

Paying It Forward #SeasonOfGiving

by Friends of Canossaville for Canossaville Children and Community Services

This campaign is created on behalf of a Friend of Canossaville who has chosen to remain anonymous but still wants to do her part to support our work. -- Campaign Update: "Thank you all for your support and we have raised $5,000 together! As promised, my family shall be pledging $5,000 in matching donations to the campaign. My friend Lindi has also joined me to pledge up to another $5,000 for the next $5,000 raised, hence the first $10,000 donated to the campaign shall be matched dollar for dollar by both of us. Please donate generously if you have not done so. As a form of appreciation, our family would be sending out 50 jars of homemade kaya and Lindi would be making 10 chocolate tarts to friends to thank them for their generous donation. We hope our hardwork would raise awareness to the good work that Canossaville has done for so many years in the low income area of Aljunied and MacPherson. Please take a look at the campaign photos to find out why I chose to give. I would like to pay forward the kindness we received to uplift the lives of children who may face similar challenges. Thank you all!
