Our Campaign Story

ends 28 Jul 2022, 11:59 PM

Your GIFT creates real IMPACT!

Alfie (not his real name) is a 4-year-old student from Canossaville Preschool (CPS). At CPS he receives early intervention to manage his hearing loss. Being in CPS also enables both his parents to work and support their family of 9, but they struggle to send him to school regularly due to their busy work schedules.

Thanks to the support from our partners and donors, Canossaville was able to subsidise Alfie's fees and arranged for him to come to CPS on the school bus. We also arranged for his family to benefit from our regular care pack distributions, providing them with food and daily necessities to ease their burden.

Thanks to his improved attendance, Alfie has shown great improvement in managing his hearing loss. He is more vocal and has learnt sign language to aid his communication with others.

Your donations will enable us to continue supporting children like Alfie and his family. Thank you for being a Never-Ending Gift to our children and families!

Canossaville celebrates our 81st Anniversary this year and we thank all our supporters and donors for your GIFT that impacts the children and their families entrusted in our care.

Canossaville started as an orphanage on 15 August 1941 at Sallim Road, in response to the increasingly urgent need to serve the poor in the Geylang-Aljunied area.

Over the years, the Canossian Sisters and the children endured a war, relocation to Malaysia, expansion, and finally as Canossaville Children and Community Services today. Mother Foundress, St Magdalene, always said that we must change with the sign of the times. As such, Canossaville will continue to grow and strengthen our support for the children, families, and the communities.

The proceeds from this campaign will ensure that we continue to provide our essential programmes and services to our children and families from all races and faiths, persist in providing early intervention support for our children with hearing loss, and grow and expand our assistance to those in need.

Your GIFT today and support for our cause makes a world of difference.

Join us today and be a Never-Ending Gift!

Thank you!
