New Life Community Services (New Life or NLCS) is a not-for-profit social service agency committed to serve the Bukit Panjang and Woodlands community. Established by Covenant Evangelical Free Church in 2000, NLCS seeks to bring hope and purpose to children, youths and seniors so that they go on to create positive impact in their community and society. NLCS is a full member of the National Council of Social Service, as well as an Institution of Public Character. To date, NLCS runs three childcare centres, three student care centres and two youth hubs with an emphasis on imparting life skills and character values to the next generation. We also conduct literacy and character mentoring programmes for disadvantaged children and after-school engagement programmes for youths. We provide marginalised families with financial assistance, casework management and counselling to address financial and social issues, so that their schooling children will be adequately supported. We are currently developing active ageing programmes to support the needs of the elderly. Our faith-based ethos motivates us to love and care for each person with the love that our God shows to us. Over the years, we have reached out to thousands of individuals from different religions and races – with absolutely no strings attached.
