Have you ever found yourself with no one to turn to or talk to?

Millions of us have felt lonely during the COVID-19 pandemic and seniors who live alone are not spared.

'Elderly people may feel lonely, isolated even while living with family' - The Straits Times, 27 August 2021

Most of our seniors are living alone and have no one to turn to except for staff & volunteers of Lions Befrienders.

The main objective of E-Flag Day is to Help UNLONELY Seniors by Staying Connected today. From 23 April 2022 till 31 July 2022, we hope to raise $100,000 for programmes and services to restore and improve the lives of vulnerable seniors, mentally, socially, and physically.

Help UNLONELY Seniors by adopting an e -tin today!

With your support, it will enable us to mitigate loneliness amongst our seniors, ensuring that they live their twilight years in the comfort of their homes and independently in the community.

About the Charity

Established in 1995, LB has more than 25 years of experience in befriending and caring for seniors in order for them to age in place in the community. Over the years, LB strives to address the varied needs of more than 86,000 seniors by adopting a senior-centric approach in its eldercare services. Leveraging on the support of some 1,000 regular volunteers, we actively engage more than 6,000 at-risk seniors via a spectrum of integrated eldercare service from preventive to intervention through comprehensive programmes, including social, emotional, mental and physical, to improve their quality of life.

Amid the challenges in the eldercare landscape, LB undertakes constant review and adjustment to its programmes and services. Under our Community Outreach arm, we currently operate 10 Active Ageing Centres, 3 Cluster Support, 2 Senior Group Homes and Home Personal Care services. Our Befriending arm extends island-wide befriending services to socially isolated seniors. For its exemplary disclosure and corporate governance practices, LB was conferred the Charity Transparency Award by the Charity Council in 2016 and 2017.

Lions Befrienders welcomes all donations. However, for administrative purposes, a minimum donation of $50 is eligible for tax deduction.
