February 11th 2019 marked the beginning of a new journey for I Can Read with JOY. For the third consecutive year, we are running and expanding our Corporate Social Responsibility campaign which aims to provide as many financially-disadvantaged children as possible with the confidence and crucial foundational skills which are taught in our literacy courses. 

For the past year, I Can Read with JOY has been working alongside AMKFSC Community Services Ltd, TRANS Family and CLUB RAINBOW to bring pre-reading and reading lessons to the 70 children who benefit from their services. We were delighted to receive positive feedback from these welfare organisations and their beneficiaries. We heard that many of the students thoroughly enjoyed their lessons. 

This year, three new non-profit organisations, Brighton Connection Student Care Centre, Marine Parade Family Service Centre and Care Corner Student Care Centre have partnered with us. We are also working with Dazhong Primary School by bringing our renowned curriculum directly into their classrooms. Over one hundred students will benefit from this year’s initiative. 

At I Can Read, we believe that any organised community, business or corporation plays an important part, however small, in contributing to the betterment of society. 

I Can Read will document the progress of this campaign on our Facebook page and we hope you'll join us as we embark on yet another journey of learning!

贫困家庭教育援助计划

2019年2月11日I CAN READ with JOY开启了新的旅程，这是我们开展“企业社会责任”计划的第三年，旨在帮助更多经济困难儿童提高学习英语的信心和获得学习语言必备的技能。

在过去的一年中，I CAN READ with JOY一直致力于和“新加坡宏茂桥家庭与社区服务机构、TRANS Family以及CLUB RAINBOW”三家福利组织共同协作，为70名他们服务的儿童提供预读和阅读课程。无论是福利机构还是参与课程的学生，都给予了我们很积极的反馈，他们都很喜欢我们提供的课程。

今年，我们除了会和“布莱顿学生关怀中心, Marine Parade家庭服务中心和

关爱角学生关爱中心”这三个新的非营利组织合作，还会与大学、中学、小学合作，将我们的课程引入到学校课堂中。今年我们的目标是令超过一百名学生获益。

I CAN READ坚信，无论规模大小的企业、组织，都会在促进社会进步方面发挥重要的作用。

I CAN READ将会在Facebook上记录该活动的进展，我们希望您能加入我们的学习之旅！

On the 26th of September 2019, I Can Read was awarded as an “Honouree” by Brands for Good, under Community – Social Giving and Engagement. 

This award was presented to us in recognition of our Corporate Social Responsibility programme, I Can Read with JOY. The programme has provided more than 200 children from financially-disadvantaged families with free I Can Read classes, empowering them with the skills needed to read fluently and independently in preparation for primary school. 

Mr Tan Aik Ping, Executive Director of I Can Read says, "We believe that any organised community, business or corporation plays an important part, however small, in contributing to the betterment of the society."

We are elated to have received this award and continue to work towards our goal of sponsoring 300 children by the year 2020.
