A safe and trusted community space for children from vulnerable neighbourhoods.
Save our Safe Space
Through January 2023, we urgently appeal to you to support our 'Save our Safe Space' emergency fundraiser.
With your generous support, more than 50 children and their siblings aged 6-17 years old from vulnerable neighbourhoods in Singapore will be able to continue to access an inclusive and safe physical space that they know is created just for them - every week of the year! We open our doors at least twice a week and hope to grow this to 3-4 times by mid-2023. Beyond our in-person sessions with children, we also co-create meaningful field trips with innovative and supportive local and regional brands, corporates and organisations.
When you choose to make a gift today, you become the reason that children will be surrounded by consistent and supportive community relationships, learn skills to help them flourish in life and create confidence in who they are and the dreams they have for the next few years.
Give the Gift of Meaningful Experiences
Your contribution will enable us to provide at least 12 curated experiences and excursions* for 50 children and young people each month of 2023. Take a look at the experiences list below and if you're currently working at a company looking for a CSR program, your team can choose to sponsor one activity and join the children!
Watch a re-cap video where SUMMIT POWER INTERNATIONAL chose us as their community partner and sponsored an ESCAPE ROOM experience for the children: fb.watch/f3JO_uOioN/
*These experiences have been suggested and selected by children in our program as well as based on their interests
Not your average ground-up community organisation
It truly ‘takes a village’ and we look forward to you championing the community spirit alongside us soon!
YEAR IN REVIEW
Dedicated to change.
Blessings in a Bag started as a volunteer-powered community determined to provide every child and their family - in emergency or challenging situations - with the essentials needed to thrive and to feel safe, valued and happy.
We partner with social-service organisations to bridge the gap between communities that have with communities that need, who receive these items at no cost or through incentivised programs which enable them to take ownership of their situations.
For 10 years, we have been the go-to for collection and distribution of donations-in-kind that would have otherwise ended up landfill or sat collecting dust. We collected items by the box-load and communities across South East Asia benefited from our work and used items as social incentives for their own local community programs.
While we continue to advocate for seeing a less wasteful and apathetic society, we now dedicate our focus, heart and soul towards our Beyond Awesome program which cheerleads under-resourced children and youth from high-need communities in Singapore through meaningfully curated experiences and access to social networks.
