Our Story
In Singapore, 10% of Singaporeans face financial struggles. An estimate of 26% of Singapore households draw an income just enough to meet their daily basic needs. When members of their family or themselves are struck with medical conditions, living from hand to mouth takes a heavy toll on them.
Each year we assist hundreds of less privileged patients and their families cope with their medical and living conditions. With the aid beyond social services, community donors like yourself can ease the less privileged living on the edge.
Your donation can make a life-changing experience for the less privileged, more so for those coupled with medical conditions.
Every dollar counts towards
- Defraying Medical Cost
- Supply of Vaccinations
- Ancillary Services such as ambulance fees, transportation costs, medical escorts
- Mobility Assistive Devices like motorized wheelchairs, commodes, crutches
- Medical Devices such as air mattresses, homecare beds
- Minor Home Modification Supply and Installation Works
Your contribution to raise $180,000 can aid patients in their reintegration back into society; regaining their physical independence after their discharge from the Hospital.
You can be that gift of hope and strength to the less privilege as a result of your generosity.
Your donation to us will come along to further our cause in creating a rehabilitative ecosystem conducive for the community in need.
Together we can be the beacon of philanthropy!
Madam Arumathi, a 43-year-old lady had mobility challenges after she suffered a 3rd metatarsal fracture. She is also diagnosed with end stage kidney failure with required peritoneal dialysis treatment. Plagued by her medical conditions, Madam Arumathi depended on her elderly mother to assist with her mobility. To enable her independence in community living, a motorized wheelchair would be her aid. With hand to mouth almsgiving from the Workfare and ComCare assistance, the motorized wheelchair could not be the priority. It was soon that Madam Arumathi went into depression when she realised that she would always have to be reliant on others.
~Today, Madam Arumathi is independently mobile with the aid of the motorized wheelchair provided from the Patient Welfare Fund of Ang Mo Kio Thye Hua Kwan Hospital.
Mr Zulaiman is a 67-year-old gentleman who was admitted to Ang Mo Kio Thye Hua Kwan Hospital for rehabilitation. Mr Zulaiman was diagnosed with asthma-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease overlap syndrome (ACOS) that handicaps his breathing ability. As such, he is often lying in bed causing Mr Zulaiman to develop bedsores. Living on the edge of charity from Home Caregiving Grant, he chose staples over air mattress in view that his caregiver wife still needs food in order to care for him.
~At present, Mr Zulaiman is recuperating well at home under the care of his wife with the support of the air mattress that was provided from Ang Mo Kio Thye Hua Kwan Hospital Patient Welfare Fund
