Mission

2. To co-ordinate help efforts and to give immediate relief and support to help students and their families to ride over the crisis.
3. To empower school teachers, principals and counselors to identify and help students in family crisis through a ready pool of fund instead of having to resort to ad-hoc fund-raising.

General Information
The Compassion Fund is a crisis response fund set up for students from low-income families in crisis as a result of the death of a breadwinner, a sudden illness or accident in the family. It aims to give early and timely assistance to help PREVENT the students’ families from spiralling into poverty or developing other chronic family problems and hence impacting a child’s schooling. It provides immediate assistance at the point of need so as to allow the family, time during the interim, to develop longer term solutions. It is the intent of the Compassion Fund to complement and not replace existing assistance schemes.
