Singapore Girls' Home
In collaboration with Singapore Girls' Home, the programme focuses on academic mentoring of youth-at-risk who are from the ages 13-17, studying in secondary school. Our female student volunteers tutor and provide guidance to the girls in the Home.
The subjects being mentored in the Homework Buddies Programme includes subjects in the O Levels and N Levels syllabuses such as the Sciences, Mathematics, English and Humanities.
Location is a bus ride away from Hougang MRT Station.

Sessions take place every Saturday from 3pm to 4.30pm.
Apart from academic mentoring, our programme also organises activities for volunteers and the girls to bond such as pizza parties and gift-giving day to reward the girls in the Home after their examinations. As such, these opportunities allow our members to interact and support the youths, guiding them through the activities and games. Moreover, it allows for the commemoration and recognition of the efforts and hard work over the period of time. Over time, our members play a part in engaging and inspiring the youths that they interact with.
*Volunteer clearance with Ministry of Social and Family Development is required
