Established in 1976, AWWA Elderly Services is the arm of the Asian Women’s Welfare Association (AWWA) that provides services for the elderly.

• AWWA Community Home for Senior Citizens renders shelter to needy elder Singaporeans. A sheltered home, that feels like home.

• AWWA READYCARE Centre is a Day Rehabilitation Centre committed to serve the elderly discharged from hospitals, with physical challenges and with good potentials to    recover, undergo structured professional care to optimally revive their functional independence and mobility.

• AWWA Seniors Activity Centre is the right place for Senior Citizens to gather together to have interactions and social activities hosted by our staff and volunteers. Senior Citizens will never feel bored at home anymore.

Funding

The operating costs of the Community Home and READYCARE Centre are funded by grants from MCYS, MOH and NCSS. Our Seniors Activity Centre is funded by NCSS, Tote Board and donations. We also seek donations for other non-funded expenses such as vehicles for transporting our elderly clients and subsidies to help our lower income clients. Donations to AWWA Elderly Services are eligible for tax exemption.
