“The theme today is “Uplift Caregivers, Uplift Community,” because we don’t just want caregivers to do well

Dear CaringSG members,
As a caregiver of two, I understand that caregiving can be exhausting, both physically and emotionally. On some days we feel like on top of the world, and on others the weight of the setbacks can feel like the heaviest of weights.
But here’s what I’ve realized: it’s on the stormiest days that we discover our true strength.
Let’s not forget that what we do is extraordinary. Every single day, we make a significant difference in someone else’s life. No act of love, no matter how small, ever goes unnoticed.
We are not just caregivers; we are life-changers, warriors, unsung heroes.
So right now I wish to say thank you. Thank you for your tenacity and your selfless love. Each one of you is a beacon of hope and a pillar of strength for the ones you care for, and for the entire community.
Let’s keep leaning on each other, learning, growing, and most importantly, CARING.
“The theme today is “Uplift Caregivers, Uplift Community,” because we don’t just want caregivers to do well
“The theme today is “Uplift Caregivers, Uplift Community,” because we don’t just want caregivers to do well; we also want the community to be strong. The reason why caregivers chip in is that we are building the community, not just for ourselves, but for our children and future generations.”
CaringSG’s inaugural Family Day took place on 7th September 2024, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the Enabling Village. This special event, in partnership with Enabling Village, Singapore’s first inclusive community space, brings together the public, caregivers, persons with disabilities and their supporters for a day filled with learning, connection, and memorable experiences.
“We are stronger together. Whether it’s joining a support group, marching side by side in the Purple Parade, sharing the healing power of a journal, or simply being there for each other, every action we take, no matter how small, contributes to a more compassionate and resilient community.”
“CaringSG be focusing on providing you more support for mental health and financial resilience—whether it’s self-care, planning for the future, exploring career options, or simply ensuring you have someone to talk to when things get tough.”
In 2024-2025, with support from SG Enable, and in collaboration with the Enabling Services Hubs by SG Enable and partners that aim to bring disability support closer to home, CaringSG will be setting up 10 CAREkaki chapters in 10 constituencies in Singapore.
