Founded more than 30 years ago in 1981 and registered as an Institution of a Public Character, Methodist Welfare Services (MWS) is a multi-service organisation that manages 19 centres and outreach programmes across Singapore.

We serve people in need regardless of their race and religion. Our critical services support low-income and/or distressed families, children from low-income families, at-risk youths, the destitute, sick and/or frail elderly, and the socially isolated.

Our belief is the enable all to have life to the full through reducing poverty, alleviating the strains and stresses of modern life, helping the elderly age in place and live with dignity, nurturing the potential of disadvantaged children and rehabilitating at-risk youths.

GIVING HOPE TO UNDERPRIVILEGED CHILDREN
MWS' programmes for children from disadvantaged backgrounds are focused on providing them with resources to advance their academic potential, develop character and pick up life skills.

GIVING GRACE TO AT-RISK YOUTH
Youths who run afoul of the law are rehabilitated at our girls' hostel through a structured and meaningful learning journey with our professional counsellors and caseworkers.

GIVING STRENGTH TO FAMILIES IN DISTRESS
The road to healing for families in distress is a long and complicated one. Our social workers and counsellors journey with them through the multiple complex challenges that they face.

GIVING CARE TO THE CHRONICALLY ILL, FRAIL AND DESTITUTE
Our multi-disciplinary team provides intensive medical and therapy care for our beneficiaries who need help in activities of daily living. Palliative care is provided for critically ill patients, and ensuite care services help the frail in the familiar comfort of their own homes. MWS also runs a nursing home for elderly sick from low income families and a home for the homeless.

GIVING WARMTH TO THE SOCIALLY ISOLATED
Seniors and migrant workers who do not have strong social networks are vulnerable to social isolation and depression. Our senior activity centres run meaningful and engaging programmes for seniors while our para-counselling unit at the migrant workers' dormitory helps those who face adjustment issues.
