MONTHLY DONATIONS
Make sustainable, long-term impact
ONE-TIME DONATIONS
Meet urgent needs on the ground
One-time donations allow us to direct funds to support Project HomeWorks, our local volunteering programme. The areas of our work that require the most financial support include:
​
-
purchasing basic furniture, cleaning and painting supplies
-
engaging professional pest control services
-
programme costs associated with running Project HomeWorks sessions, including:
-
manpower resources required to identify and assess vulnerable homeowners,
-
train volunteer leaders and
-
liaise with social workers to meet the needs on the ground.
-
We are extremely thankful to partner our supporters who believe deeply enough in our vision to give on a monthly basis. We call this special group our HopeBuilders.
​
Monthly donations are directed to the same areas of work as one-time donations, while providing consistency in funding. This consistency is how HopeBuilders double their impact for non-government, independent, volunteer-driven charities like Habitat.
​
Thanks to our HopeBuilders, our work can continue - and even expand - so that safe and decent homes become a reality for more families.
We’d ask for you to consider becoming a HopeBuilder and help us empower families and elderly to build a better life for themselves.
Donations are pulled together with other gifts from other donors and funds distributed to where it is most needed.
Giving monthly helps daily.

ders
Monthly donors we fondly refer to as HopeBuilders are the true visionaries. They provide the consistent and reliable support we need to make sustainable and long-term commitments to families and help them get back on their feet.
​
HopeBuilders believe that vulnerable Singaporeans can be empowered to independently build a better life for themselves with the right kind of help.
They also know that their monthly gifts are pooled together and distributed to where it is needed the most. We do everything in our power to ensure homes are fully rehabilitated - even if it means extra rounds of professional fumigation for a heavily pest-infested house or buying extra beds for a big family with children.
