With the gradual easing of the circuit breaker measures, SSA has recently reached out once again to some of our seniors who are staying alone with no caregivers to ensure they are keeping well.
On Saturday 18 July, some 300 SSA volunteers came together at the Kranji Camp to help out in the packing of the Singapore Together Pack.
As Singapore battles the COVID-19 pandemic during the circuit breaker period, the national blood supply dipped to a new low and critical level. On 16 May, SSA partnered the Singapore Red Cross (SRC) and held a blood donation drive with SSA Headquarters as the venue sponsor.
As the national blood supply dips to a new low and critical levels during this circuit breaker period, SSA has stepped forward to partner the Singapore Red Cross in holding a blood donation drive happening at the SSA Headquarters on Saturday, 16 May 2020, 10am to 4pm!
After close to 3 months of hard work, 100 of our Future Division members and another 100 Merdeka Generation members wow-ed the audience at the annual Chingay Parade held at the F1 Pit over 31 January and 1 February. This year marks SGS’s 36th year of participation in the Chingay Parade, an annual international street parade held during the Lunar New Year period. This year, SSA participated in two performing items – the Opening Segment where 100 (Secondary 1) Future Division members entered with the Guest-of-Honour (Prime Minister and President for both days respectively); and “Bridge of Harmony” where 100 Merdeka Generation (Singaporeans born between 1950–1959) leaders performed in a travelling dance item. Well done all SSA performers!
Catch both the SSA items this Sunday 9 February, 7pm or 16 February, 4.30pm on Channel 8!

On 17 January 2020, our Soka Volunteers Group members brought our SPD beneficiaries on an outing to the Chinatown arena to busk in the Lunar New Year festivities. This is the 13th year that SSA has been conducting this annual activity which has brought much joy to the SPD beneficiaries.
While many may be slowing down our footsteps this holiday season, 100 Future Division members and another 100 Merdeka Generation members have been training hard for Chingay 2020 happening early February! Our kudos to all these wonderful members and those working behind the scenes for their great efforts!
On 21 December, SSA participated in the ‘Peace & Prosperity Singapura 2019’ held in commemoration of Singapore’s bicentennial year. This event, organised by Tao One Ltd and various collaborative partners, was a nationwide initiative to celebrate the nation’s peace and prosperity, and aims to foster a deeper appreciation of inter-racial and inter-religious harmony amongst Singaporeans. Minister for Education Mr Ong Ye Kung was the Guest of Honour for the event.
It’s the third time that members from the Soka Volunteers Group (SVG) are returning to the familiar faces of residents at the St. Andrew’s Nursing Home (SANH), this time with the objective of bringing joy and warmth through an afternoon of interactive games.
