Our Campaign Story

My name is Asher. I want to help friends who have no money to buy toys and food and clothes. I want to make their life happy like my life. I want everyone to smile and feel love. Thank you! - Asher (3 year-old)

As a society, we often take for granted the basic necessities of life: food, shelter, and education. For low-income families, these things can be incredibly difficult to obtain, let alone afford. That's why we're starting this fundraiser - to help those who need it most.

Imagine being a parent and not being able to provide your children with a proper meal or the tools they need to succeed in school. Imagine having to choose between paying your electricity bill and buying groceries. For many families in our community, these scenarios are all too real. No family should have to struggle to put food on the table or keep the lights on. No child should be denied the opportunity to learn and grow because of their family's financial situation.

But it doesn't have to be this way. Together, we can make a difference. With your help, we can provide low-income families with the resources they need to thrive. From groceries and utilities bills, to educational materials and after-school programs, your donation can make a world of difference in the lives of those who need it most. Please join us in this important cause. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who need it most. - Asher's Parents

About The Charity

Children's Wishing Well (CWW) is a registered charity and IPC founded in 2002. We have won the Charity Transparency Awards accorded by MCCY from 2019 to 2022.

We focus on supporting children and youth from low-income families, mainly through educational programmes and financial assistance. We reach out to over 1,000 beneficiaries each year via 2 full-service centres, 7 community sites, and collaborations with other charitable organisations. We depend solely on donations from private organisations and members of public to fund our services, while keeping all our programmes and services 100% free of charge for the children and families. We believe that by providing the children with educational support and more equal opportunities, they will be able to maximise their potential and get out of the poverty trap.

Cash donations above $50 are eligible for 250% tax deduction, if full name and NRIC/FIN/UEN number are provided. We will auto-file the tax deduction with Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) only if you provide your full name and NRIC/FIN number. We regret that we would not be able to process the IRAS auto-filing if you do not provide complete and accurate information. Please write to [email protected] if you wish to receive tax deduction receipt via email.
