Youth Enrichment Program - CHILDREN'S WISHING WELL
Children’s Wishing Well (CWW) is a registered charity and IPC founded in 2002. We have won the Charity Transparency Awards accorded by MCCY from 2019 to 2023. We focus on supporting children and youth from low-income families, mainly through educational programmes and financial assistance. We reach out to over 1,000 beneficiaries each year via 2 full-service centres, 8 community sites, and collaborations with other charitable organisations. We depend solely on donations from private organisations and members of public to fund our services, while keeping all our programmes and services 100% free of charge for the children and families. We believe that by providing the children with educational support and more equal opportunities, they will be able to maximise their potential and get out of the poverty trap.

YOUTH ENRICHMENT PROGRAMME

Empowering Potential, Inspiring Success

The Youth Enrichment Programme (YEP) is designed to inspire and empower youths aged 13 to 17 with the skills, knowledge, and exposure needed to thrive in their educational journey and beyond. By combining academic support, career exploration, and engaging holiday programmes, YEP aims to nurture well-rounded individuals who are confident, resilient, and ready to pursue their aspirations.

Academic Support

The YEP provides dedicated academic support to help youths achieve their potential in school.

Experienced MOE-registered former school teachers conduct English and Mathematics lessons to strengthen core competencies.

Additional 1 on 1 sessions are conducted by volunteers to support in other subjects such as Chemistry or Biology, tailoring help to meet each student’s needs.

Sessions are held during school terms on selected weekdays and Saturdays, ensuring consistent guidance throughout the academic year.

Pathfinder Enrichment Module

Aligned with our mission to deliver holistic education, youths can sign up for a 3- to 6-session project that equips them with relevant knowledge and practical skills in Art, Culinary, Sports or STREAM, and
serves as a platform to develop their socio-emotional competencies, self-discipline and resiliency.

These projects are facilitated by professional vendors, with the expectations that the youths must
produce a tangible piece of work at the end of each project. It is held during school terms on selected Saturdays.

Career GPS

Career GPS exposes students to a variety of industries and professions, inspiring them to discover their passions and plan for their future. Delivered in an interactive 3-hour format at company premises, the sessions include:

Company Tours: Explore different workplaces to gain insight into daily operations.
