MISSION & PHILOSOPHY

Our mission is to provide quality and holistic services that address social issues and meet the changing needs of the community.

FaithActs is about changing lives. Not only do we want to help meet community needs and address social problems in a very real and practical way, we also want to impact, change and transform the lives of those we meet and help them through their interaction with us.

We believe that each and every individual that we encounter has the potential and ability to grow, change and be nurtured into active and contributing members of society, no matter what his / her background and circumstance.

Thus, we strive to harness the energy and vitality of life in each person so that we can help maximise his / her potential.

We work actively to improve the quality of life of the people that we encounter, strengthening both family and community life in the process. We are committed to serve and meet the needs of the community through the provision of social services as we want to make a difference and positively impact the lives of the people living around us, especially those who are poor, needy and / or disadvantaged. As we focus on the strengths and potential in each individual, we move away from labelling or stigmatising those that we help, thus empowering them to take the first step towards making changes in their own lives.
