Thank You for Making GoMAD 2025 Meaningful
As the GoMAD Campaign comes to a close, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you who journeyed with us this year.
Through your generosity, enthusiasm, and willingness to step up, we are grateful to share that close to $277,000 has been raised. This collective effort has translated into real impact—touching the lives of children and families from low-income households, as well as bringing care, companionship, and encouragement to the lonely elderly in our community.
Beyond the funds raised, what truly stood out was the spirit behind the campaign. Whether you participated, donated, or rallied family and friends to join you, your involvement helped foster a community of kindness and purpose. We hope the experience has been both meaningful and enriching for you.
As we look ahead, we do so with renewed commitment and confidence to continue this work together. Thank you for believing in the GoMAD mission and for being part of this shared journey.
Let us continue to Go Make A Difference—today and in the year ahead.

Who We Help
Making a Difference for Vulnerable and Isolated Seniors
When Auntie Yong* first joined the Jiale sessions at HOPE Centre, she kept mostly to herself. She was often tired, withdrawn, and distant — her clothes carrying the faint odour of neglect that comes from living alone and forgotten. Few knew the hardship behind her quiet demeanor.
A home visit by BCCS staff revealed the painful truth. Her flat was in a dire state — hallways blocked with clutter, furniture falling apart, ceiling leaking, and lights barely working. There was no bed to rest on, no phone line to reach out for help — only piles of expired food and silence.
It took months of patient befriending before Auntie Yong finally opened her heart to us. Bit by bit, we helped her rebuild her home and her confidence. Today, she has more well-lit space, a proper mattress to sleep on, and weekly fresh fruits and vegetables supply. Most importantly, she has rediscovered joy — attending Jiale gatherings with a smile that speaks of dignity restored and kindness received.
Every week, despite her frail frame and unsteady steps, Auntie Wong* makes her slow journey to HOPE Centre. It isn’t easy — but she never misses a session. Here, in the laughter and gentle chatter of our active-aging activities, she finds more than exercise for the mind — she finds warmth, friendship, and the comforting sense that she belongs.
Your Giving Makes Transformations Like This Possible
With your help, more seniors like Auntie Yong and Auntie Wong can step out from loneliness and live again with warmth, safety, and hope.
Give today. Your support helps keep our doors open and our programmes running for lonely seniors to
continue to find comfort, connection, and hope and dignity in their golden years.
