Dear Friends,

We are so happy and grateful that you’re joining us to celebrate our 25 years of marriage! Your presence is the present, so please do not bring any gifts.

However, if you would like to mark the occasion with a gesture, we would be deeply touched if you considered supporting Ray of Hope* (ROH). This wonderful charity in Singapore helps individuals who fall between the gaps, because they do not qualify for traditional support or have unfortunately fallen on difficult times. ROH offers them a lifeline, not just through financial assistance but also with encouragement and resources to help them find their footing.

We can’t wait to celebrate our Silver anniversary with you.

Love,
Stephanie & Clifford

*ROH is an institution of a public character (IPC) and donations above $50 will tax deductions of up to 2.5 times the qualifying donation amount. xx

Who We Serve

Ray of Hope serves anyone who works, studies or lives in Singapore regardless of nationality and citizenship status:

🟠 Primary Group: Singaporeans from low-income families facing sudden hardship such as illness, injury and sudden unemployment, or caregiving responsibilities.

🟠 Extended Support: Vulnerable groups living within our community who face unique barriers to traditional aid, such as migrant brothers, stateless individuals, and foreign spouses/children in crisis.

Our 3 Pillars

🟠 Crowdfunding:
Campaigns that provide financial assistance to families and individuals in crisis, as well as community-based campaigns that align with Community Impact’s focus on emerging and unmet needs.

🟠 Casework:
Every campaign whether for an individual or a community initiative is verified by our case or partnerships team, respectively. Ensuring accountability and dignity at every stage.

🟠 Community Building:
Working alongside corporates, NGOs, ground-up groups and government agencies to mobilise resources, co-design initiatives, and extend help to groups excluded from conventional support. These partnerships allow us to amplify impact and address gaps more holistically.

Amplifying Impact

Funds raised through this campaign will go towards Ray of Hope’s Community Impact, which will be matched by Tote Board’s Enhanced Fundraising Scheme (EFR), thus amplifying the impact of your contribution. The matched funds will enable Ray of Hope to continue verifying and supporting cases, ensuring that every campaign on our platform is genuine. This is what makes it possible for donations to reach those who need it most.

Ray of Hope does not replace existing aid. Instead, we step in to bridge urgent gaps where conventional systems may fall short. We work closely with social service agencies and government partners so our efforts complement, rather than duplicate, existing schemes.

Every act of giving, no matter how small, ripples out to touch countless lives. Every dollar helps us keep the lights on so we can continue to serve Singapore’s most vulnerable communities.
