PRESS RELEASE
3 Ang Mo Kio Community Care Network (CCN) is the first local network
supported by ComCare. The CCN is an expression of the Ang Mo Kio social
service agencies and grassroots organisations’ concern for the needy, especially
the elderly. By July 2006, ComCare will help another 19 family service centres
(FSCs) or multi-service centres (MSCs, operated by VWOs) to enhance their
capabilities in these areas, with funding of up to $760,000.
Conclusion
9 More than 51,000 families and children have been helped since ComCare
was launched in June 2005. By building local social service networks and
expanding partnerships across the community, ComCare will be able to provide
more effective assistance to the needy in our society.
• Partner with VWOs etc to provide and run programmes for the needy.
• Targeted primarily at entities that are keen to do more socially, but have
difficulty identifying the appropriate causes and organisations.
• Opportunities to develop their talent in areas outside their regular job scope.
2. Identify areas and carve out aspects in which ComCare Connection members
can contribute to VWOs/SEs.
