Lakeside Charity Gala 2025
Lakeside Charity Gala 2025
Everyone has a light within them. When we do good, this inner light shines on those in need, giving them warmth and guidance as they navigate the darkest parts of their lives.
Since 1993, Lakeside Family Services has been there for who feel lost or left behind: fractured families who need healing, children and youths who need guidance and opportunities, seniors who need pillars of support in their golden years, and ex-offenders who need a fresh start in life.
When you illuminate their path, you enable them to take small steps towards big dreams. And with every contribution, your light shines on in the lives that are changed.
The Lakeside Charity Gala 2025 presents the perfect opportunity for your light to shine brighter than ever. We hope you will support our work by sponsoring tables or making a donation. Will you let your light shine?
Fundraising Period: 17 April 2025 to 31 December 2025
PROGRAMMES WE ARE RAISING FUNDS FOR
The GRIT Project
In 2024, we served 613 children & 273 youths
The GRIT Project (TGP) nurtures a caring generation to serve the community. It addresses the needs of children and youths aged 7 to 17, including those from disadvantaged families.
Through fun-filled and engaging activities, TGP provides a safe space for self-discovery and empowerment so they can grow to be confident, competent, connected, caring, and of good character.
Reading Intervention Services
In 2024, we taught 161 children to read
Reading Intervention Services (RIS) serves children aged 4 to 8, including those from low-income families. We help them learn to read at an age-appropriate level and cultivate good reading habits.
Through reading programmes, storytelling, crafts, audio-visuals, songs, play, and phonics lessons, they learn skills and strategies for reading, comprehension, and speaking, children develop their self-esteem and gain confidence, thereby translating to academic success at school.
Lakeside Student Care
In 2024, we provided quality care for 213 children
Lakeside Student Care (Jurong East and Jurong West) provides after-school care, meals, and homework help for children aged 7 to 12, including those from disadvantaged families.
We teach them to be responsible and independent from an early age, and provide them with meaningful and fun-filled learning opportunities.
Kaki Kampong Seniors Wellness
In 2024, we served 300 seniors
Kaki Kampong Seniors Wellness (KKSW) promotes holistic wellness in seniors aged 50 and above, empowering them to take charge of their lives and well-being.
KKSW keeps the kampong spirit alive by encouraging seniors to do good in the community. Active seniors reach out to isolated and vulnerable seniors, strengthening community bonds through peer-to-peer volunteering. Volunteering also helps seniors maintain an active lifestyle and a positive mindset.
KKSW runs interest groups, and organises outings, events, and celebrations for seniors.
TJ Haven
In 2024, we served 3,926 inmates and their families
Taman Jurong Haven (TJH) provides services to the incarcerated, ex-inmates, and their families through in-care and after-care programmes.
We foster reconciliation, restoration, and reintegration by inspiring hope, reconnecting families, and journeying with them through challenging times.
