Mr K Shanmugam, Minister of Law, Minster of Home Affairs, and MP of Nee Soon GRC:

“The real solution is what CampusImpact and Singapore is doing – to work hard to establish a level playing field as much as possible in different ways. We need to recognise that success is a reflection of talent, determination, as well as the community support that one has received.” “We are focused on policies that support social mobility and opportunities for everyone. CampusImpact helps build the resilience and attitude in your youths to pursue those opportunities.”

Mission Vision

Our mission is to provide a holistic approach in character building for youths as they transit from childhood to adulthood, so that they will become useful citizens for the community and serve as pillars of strength for the nation. Our vision is to prepare the new generation with: A Positive attitude A Purposeful life A Pioneering spirit

Core Values

The 3 Ps are values that we not only hope to develop in the students and families who come through our doors; volunteers, staff members and key leadership also espouse these values. Positive Attitude The best outcomes are achieved when clients, staff members and volunteers adopt positive attitudes. This can-do mindset helps us face challenges in our work, creating a culture of resilience and joy in CampusImpact.

Purposeful Life We chart new paths forward together with our beneficiaries so that each person can live their lives to the fullest.

Pioneering Spirit The pioneering culture of CampusImpact has been one of the most critical factors contributing to our success and growth.

CampusImpact | Annual Report 2018

CH AI R M AN’s M E S S AGE CampusImpact started with the vision of impacting youths and preparing the next generation with positive attitudes, purposeful lives and pioneering spirits. One of the biggest challenges young people must surmount is their relationship with their parents. Many problems we see with the young people today arise because parents have neglected to understand the needs of their growing children, causing misunderstandings and tensions in the relationship, which eventually leads youths to rebel against their parents. Thus, we have concentrated our efforts on restoring the relationships between parents and their children so that we can establish greater understanding and better communication within the family. We hope that this will encourage parents to also journey with their children through the tumultuous teenage years and help the next generation to excel.

Room To Grow As more children and youths come to CampusImpact, there has been an increasing need for creative space for self-directed learning and experiential learning so that we can support our students’ holistic development. We envision a supportive environment with nurturing adults and a safe space for our clients who have suffered from trauma to transit back to the community through a gateway in which the community can also access CampusImpact’s services. Thus, CampusImpact has embarked on a project, Room To Grow, to provide therapy services, intergenerational activities and give youths the space to launch social entrepreneurship projects. We hope to complete Room To Grow by December 2019 and begin operations in January 2020 with one social worker coming on board to assist with the expanding work. By 2021, we aim to build a second centre in Admiralty to serve some of the clients who are coming to the centre from Woodlands and Marsiling. In the 10 years since the centre was established in Yishun, my greatest joy and privilege in serving the families in the community is seeing relationships improve between parents and their children, allowing youths to grow in confidence and passion for life. We are committed to serving the next generation and preparing them to be pillars of the nation.

Our volunteers serve as role models and support the academic development of their students while building up our students’ confidence and resilience. Needy students are eligible for further subsidies on tuition fees. Teachers also take students out for activities during the holidays because the world is our classroom!

Study Buddy Study Buddy provides youths with a home away from home – a safe and conducive place to study under the guidance of a youth programme executive. On top of helping students with their homework every day, we also develop a love of reading in the students, helping students with poor literacy skills to acquire basic reading skills and develop a love for reading and learning. Students particularly look forward to Friday Specials, a time when we run games and activities to equip the youths with everyday skills to become independent and inculcate values to help students build character and learn teamwork. The Study Buddies have also formed a reporters’ club to research on social issues in the local and global community. The exercise in civic literacy and communication skills also builds up the students’ 21 st century competencies such as the art of presentation, self-expression and inventive thinking.

Parents Advisory Hotline The Parents Advisory Hotline provides free counselling services in English and Mandarin to parents. Through the hotline, CampusImpact helps parents resolve conflicts with their children and supports parents who are dealing with their children’s behavioural issues. The hotline was started in 2009 and is manned by trained volunteers who are supervised by CampusImpact’s counsellor through regular case management discussions.

2

Parenting Initiative This programme provides parents with a networking group through which they can get community support in their parenting journey as they come together regularly through parenting talks, workshops, forums and even outings and activities. Through this, parents can get equipped with effective parenting skills and knowledge to strengthen and restore relationships in the family. Parenting talks and workshops are conducted in the centre and in various schools around Singapore throughout the year. In 2018, 96 participants attended the workshops and talks conducted by CampusImpact.

3

Public Education Through The Media CampusImpact provides interviews to the media to encourage ongoing public education regarding parenting and youth issues. Through collaborations with our partners in the media, we hope to reach out to more parents to help them along their journey and provide useful tips and encouragement. In 2018, CampusImpact was invited by Love 97.2FM to give 5 interviews, which enabled us to provide help to a wider audience.

Study Buddy Programme “I enjoy CampusImpact because it is a place where we can do our homework, read books, we have a library, and we can have many fun activities after we have finished our homework. My favourite activity was going to the zoo at night, and saw many things that would glow in the dark.”

“I have seen Seth grow in his social skills, having had the opportunity to interact with older children. He has also come home to tell me about values, such as gratefulness, which he has learnt in the centre. It is not something that parents consciously teach our children.”
