SINGLE PARENT?
Formed last year as a part of the
Australian & New
Zealand Association
(ANZA), the ANZA Single Parents
Networking Forum provides practical support, first-hand
advice and fun, too. Whether you’re a single parent
through separation, divorce or the loss of a partner, the
aim is to help you feel less alone, and better able to make
informed decisions about staying in Singapore or going.
Regular events provide opportunities for kids of single
parents to connect and share. Email
singleparents@anza.org.sg for more information, or find upcoming events at.

SUPPORTING
SCHOOLS
The children at
Kuma Cambodia
, a
school near Phnom Penh, are among
four worthy beneficiaries of generous
donations from Singapore. Local
businesses
Ni-Night
and
SIR Move
collaborated with a team
of tireless volunteers to deliver six truckloads of supplies to the
school. On site, the team doubled the library capacity, put together
a resource room with crafts and games, created an audiovisual
room and a sick-bay area, and more. Look out for the next
donation drive later in the year, and read more about the cause on
page 95.
