About our Organisation
Hariprasad was formed by a group of 6 volunteers, who wanted to do something to help the
poor and needy children in Singapore. Although Singapore is an affluent and developed nation,
there are still some unfortunate children, namely from broken families, lower income families,
troubled families, etc. Hariprasad was conceived to help these children from an early stage
of their life to prevent them from being led astray.
About our Objectives
The organisation incorporated in Singapore on the 15th of March 1995,
engages in charitable, social, welfare and community work for the needy.
Our objectives thus include the provision of an early education at
heavily subsidised rate to those who qualify.
About our Projects
Our Projects include :
Starting a Child Care Centre
The organisation wants to set up a childcare centre for the poor children as there are many children from needy families who cannot afford the fees after qualifying for a full day subsidy of $150 per month from the Ministry of Community Development. Parents would still need to pay about $200 more to enrol one child in a centre. $200 is a lot of money for poor parents who have one or more children.
At the centre, priority will be given to poor parents who will pay only a small fee, say $50. The organisation will further subsidise fees by raising money from well wishers and charity events.
Organising Cultural Programs
As a community work, we at Hariprasad, have brought in some of the best classical music exponents to conduct formal lessons on different forms of classical music. These activities are decentralised at various community centre to reach out the mass.
