An educational & aspirational experience for the little ones
Token of Love for Our Children
Join us in spreading joy this Christmas season by donating. No amount is too small and will go a long way toward supporting our children and youth. As the adage goes “It takes a village to raise a child”, and this is so true for children from low-income vulnerable families with limited resources who need even more support from all of us in the community.
Every child has a story – This one shines with hope and the courage to grow
Adriana was 13 years old when she was referred to Life Community after her mother’s incarceration. Initially, she had low self-esteem and confidence. Being cognitively slower than her peers, Adriana faced academic challenges and did not pass her PSLE on the first attempt. Her caseworker did not give up and enrolled her in the paid tuition scheme. Her caseworker believed in her, and that sparked optimism in Adriana as she began to feel more motivated to thrive in life.
Over time, she also discovered her interest in photography and joined Life Community’s interest group. When one of her photographs was selected for the Charity Golf auction, her confidence was boosted. This affirmed her belief in her potential and improved her confidence. As she persevered, and also passed her PSLE eventually and was promoted to secondary school.
Unlike her peers, Adriana had limited exposure to independent travel as her caregiver was more protective. At a Life Community workshop, she learnt life skills such as using Google Maps for navigation, and she was inspired to put her skills into action. Her caseworker coached Adriana after getting her caregiver’s consent. With a newfound sense of courage, she successfully travelled independently for the first time and is now capable of daily commuting to school.
