Project Raising Awareness In Society through Engagement seeks to empower, raise funds and awareness for marginalized community members, which varies yearly. The project aims to create a more inclusive society for those who are sidelined or excluded by society.
In its 18th iteration, Project R.A.I.S.E. partnered with Guide Dogs Singapore to raise awareness for the visually impaired. A sight-guiding workshop, a Chinese New Year shopping trip and a 3-day roadshow were some of the activities organized to empower, raise awareness and fundraise for the visually impaired.
Previously, Project R.A.I.S.E. was known as Signature Love Project (SLP), and iterations before that have partnered with organizations to support marginalized causes such as Down Syndrome and Parkinson’s disease.
Preparations will start in November and the main activities will take place until May 2024.

Some of the initiatives in the 4th iteration include sports engagement, photography contests for the migrant brothers to showcase their photography talent, Healthserve screening and an outing to Little India and Singapore Cultural Chinese Centre.
Previously in the 3rd iteration, focus group discussions were conducted to give NUS students a better understanding of the migrant construction workers scene in Singapore and English conversation workshops were organised.
Preparations will start in November and the main activities will take place until May 2024.
