‘With a heritage tracing back to the era of British colonial rule in the late 1880s, Children’s Aid Society is among the oldest philanthropic organisations in Singapore. The organization was originally established as St Nicholas Home become developing into Children’s Aid Society in 1902.

Children’s Aid Society’s objective to aid children and young persons in need has remained fundamentally the same over the decades. Through Melrose Home, we provide a nurturing ‘Home away from Home’ for vulnerable children and youth (6-18 years old) who are coping with adverse family circumstances or child protection issues. A holistic range of educational support programmes and therapeutic services are offered to guide our young charges in their journey of healthy growth and development.’
