Community Matters

A group of active volunteers in CCIS has started a ground up initiative - Community Matters to promote community service among students. We work with different charities & non-profit groups to bring community projects to students & youths.

Community Matters will be raising funds for New Hope Community Services (New Hope CS), the adopted Charity for this year at Orchard Road. Our fund-raising booth – Reignite Hope at Home will be on site from 14-21 December 2024! Other than giving towards a meaningful cause, the public can engage in envisioning a House of Hope for the homeless through a paper house craft. 

The booth will also feature an interactive activity called “What Would You Do?” that gives the public an opportunity to understand what the homeless’ struggles in life.

We hope you will consider dropping by the booth to support us and possibly redeem a gift when you donate at our booth! *

*A minimum donation is required for gift donation and each donation entitles each donor to one redemption only.

Here’s a note from our partner -  New Hope Community Services (New Hope CS)  and how you can support them this season!
