Mentoring Support

Targeted at primary school-going children, the GEM (Go the Extra Mile) Mentoring Programme aims to provide long-term support for children from their primary to post-secondary years. This is done by strengthening their transitions in their respective schools through developing their confidence, strengths and interests, fostering friendships and involving parents and community organisations.

Project YOUth Can Shine (YCS) is a tutoring and mentoring programme that provides holistic assistance to families under the CDAC Family Assistance Programme. This is done by guiding their lower secondary school children in their schoolwork and helping them to realise their potential by building on their competencies.
Volunteers will tutor and mentor the students during weekly sessions to support them in their schoolwork. They will also organise activities to provide exposure beyond the classroom and build competencies through experiential learning.
Families are supported through talks and workshops on parenting, healthy living and financial literacy. Family bonding activities are also organised to foster family cohesiveness and strengthen the parent-child relationship.

The Supervised Homework Group (SHG) programme provides holistic help to families under CDAC Family Assistance Programme by guiding their upper primary children in their schoolwork and organising activities to develop their character.
Volunteers tutor and mentor the students during weekly sessions to support them in their school work, develop their character and inculcate positive values through indoor and outdoor activities.
Families are supported through talks and workshops on parenting, healthy living and financial literacy. Family bonding activities are also organised to foster family cohesiveness and parent-child relationships.
