While it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a community of volunteers who partner us to build strong families. From supporting our day-to-day digital initiatives to administration and logistics preparation, facilitation at our programmes and events to sharing your inspiring stories – your time, skill and expertise goes a long way for Family. No effort is too small.
Join our growing volunteer community that helps families thrive!
Join us to give encouragement to everyday families and bring restoration to hurting relationships. We need to raise
$3,100,000
for Financial Year 2023 to meet our projected expenditure
of $3.7 million to reach 40,000 families and more.
THE TIME FOR FAMILY IS NOW
Family in the Coming Age
We will continue to nurture greater intimacy in marriages, equip parents to raise resilient children, and engage the next generation of Singaporeans
in constructive and thoughtful conversations regarding sexuality and family.

The Select: Mission 1114 fortified the relationships of 240 parents and tweens through fun and exciting
parent-tween bonding activities
and guided conversations.
Youths
Through the 3-day FamChamps® Camp, 91 youths across 12 secondary schools were equipped to be undergirded with a firm belief in family and to navigate forward in their family life journey.
Married Couples
Our new signature event, Best Date EverTM, encouraged over 110 married couples to
pursue and rediscover each other throughout
their marriage journey.
In light of recent policy changes affecting relationships and family values,
the urgency to protect timeless family structures has never been greater.
Parents are the first and primary defence for children. We focus on equipping
parents to engage in conversations with their children on sex and sexuality.
Such an upstream approach enables them to nurture children and youth
who are sexually intelligent.
The #TalkAboutSex microsite is a go-to guide for parents to find helpful handles
and values-based tips on how to navigate such conversations
(and their children’s curious questions) with ease.

Volunteering with Focus reminds me of the importance of family, and the role that my own family plays in my personal life and vice versa. The journey has been, and still is, the perfect intersection of a tangible skill and being able to serve a wider community – which I believe is the calling of every person, to use what we have been given for the greater good.

WHAT WERE THE REALITIES
FACED BY FAMILIES IN 2022?
Children and Youth
ABOUT 1 IN 3
YOUNG PEOPLE
in Singapore experience mental
health symptoms.
However, strong parent-child bonds
can help lower the risk of children experiencing bullying, either as victims
or as bullies.
Young Adults
THE RISING COST
OF LIVING
in Singapore has become a main source
of concern for youth who are
struggling mentally.
Married Couples
EACH DAY, AROUND
22 SINGAPOREAN FAMILIES
are torn apart by divorce.
The outlook for marriage is bleak
as many young couples are delaying
marriage plans and having children
due to rising cost of living.
Parents
70% OF PARENTS
FEEL THAT THEY ARE
TOO BUSY
to enjoy quality time with their children.
1 in 4 experienced stress or negative feelings when their child wants
their attention.
Families
MANAGING DIGITAL
ADDICTIONS,
In a post-Covid world, many families
are still struggling with
but one effective remedy is to
strengthen the parent-child connection.
How do we continue
to build the mental and
emotional resilience of the next generation of families?
