About Financial Support
Bright Horizons Fund
“ Keeping dreams alive by giving opportunity to every child in need ”
Established by NTUC First Campus Co-operative Limited in 2008, the Bright Horizons Fund (BHF) is an IPC charity fund to enable children from low income families to receive quality pre-school education and positive classroom experiences.
As the financial support pillar of the Child Support Model, the funds are primarily used to provide financial support, learning and well-being programmes for the children and their families. More than $1 million is disbursed under the Bright Horizons Fund to support 2,000 children from low income families annually.
Bright Horizons Fund Fundraising Initiatives
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the livelihood of many Singaporeans. Since the onset of the COVID-19 crisis, we have seen the needs for our low-income families increase substantially in this challenging year.
The Bright Horizons Fund has specifically implemented several initiatives to address the needs of low-income families, with a focus on the financial, social, and health and nutrition challenges that they may face due to a lack of resources during this pandemic period.
We are continually raising funds for these support services all year round. Please join us by donating to the Bright Horizons Fund, to reach out to more children in need!
