Bright Horizons Fund
The NTUC First Campus charity fund, Bright Horizons Fund (BHF), provides financial support to low-income families to make preschool education accessible for their children. Every year, more than S$1.5 million is disbursed from the BHF to give over 5,000 children the chance of a preschool education.
To make preschool education affordable for every family, dedicated funds are set aside to subsidise childcare fees and the purchase of school uniforms. These funds also enable every child to attend field trips and receive a K2 graduation package, making their preschool journey a fulfilling and enjoyable experience.
Children and low-income families benefitted since 2008

in Action
The CapitaLand Hope Foundation, a dedicated supporter of the Bright Horizons Fund, recently visited one of our My First Skool centres. They watched Ms Meena, one of our Learning Facilitators, lead a session aimed at helping children with mild learning needs through our Classroom Support Programme.
Our focused activities in Language & Literacy and Numeracy ensure that each child can learn at their own pace, preparing them well for primary school.
We thank the CapitaLand Hope Foundation for their continued support, which helps us provide effective learning and build bright futures for our children in this programme.

Close to 400 children and families came together for a day brimming with science adventures and exciting activities at our annual Family and School Together (FAST) event!
Funded by NTUC First Campus`s charity fund Bright Horizons Fund (BHF), the event enables children and families from low-income backgrounds to benefit from educational excursions and experiences. At this outing, while exploring the Singapore Science Centre, families discovered insights into the topic of fear, the evolution of cities and more. From interactive displays to hands-on experiments, there was something for everyone to enjoy and learn from.
We look forward to many more enriching experiences with our little ones and their families.
