Shelter

A roof over everyone’s head

In 2019, we started outreaching to rough sleepers in Pasir Ris and Changi Village. Today, we operate 2 shelters for rough sleepers in need of temporary accommodation.

In 2021, we became the pioneer in managing the pairing and operations of eligible applicants under HDB's Joint Singles Scheme Operator-Run model at two locations: Buangkok and Bedok.
