Fundraising Ideas

By adopting HCSA Community Services as your company’s charity, you have the flexibility to decide how and when you would like to give. You can select a fixed period or make it an ongoing commitment, and choose the products or campaigns that best fit your brand.

Some ways you can incorporate giving into your business include:

• Contributing a portion of sales from special menu items

• Channelling proceeds from limited edition products or bundles

• Donating part of the revenue from seasonal campaigns (for example, festive promotions or anniversary collections)

Every purchase made by your customers becomes an opportunity to support:

• Ex-offenders working towards a fresh start

• Youths receiving care and support as they heal from trauma

• Single-parent families accessing practical help and community

• Low-wage workers striving to secure stable employment for their families

Together, you and your customers can enjoy what you love, while empowering others to rebuild their futures.

Discover your inner chef and deepen team connections through HCSA Academy’s Culinary Team Bonding Workshops. Cook alongside your colleagues, enjoy a delicious meal prepared by your very own team, and even take home a recipe or two.

More than just a fun day out, your workshop supports HCSA Academy, where low-wage and vulnerable workers receive skills training, coaching and support to secure gainful employment in the F&B industry. By choosing HCSA Academy for your team experience, you are helping trainees:

• Build confidence

• Gain real-world kitchen exposure

• Move towards better career prospects

— so they can provide more stably for themselves and their families.

Host your next team-bonding session with us and turn quality time with colleagues into an opportunity for someone else to start again.

Indulge in a one-of-a-kind Private Dining Experience at HCSA Academy that will fill your stomach and warm your heart. Enjoy a specially crafted menu in an intimate setting that is perfect for client appreciation, leadership retreats, family celebrations or small but luxurious gatherings — all in support of a meaningful cause.

Your private dining booking helps to sustain training and wrap-around support for low-wage workers who are building up their F&B skills and confidence. As you and your guests enjoy a thoughtfully prepared meal, you are also investing in second chances for individuals working hard to uplift their families and transform their futures.

Host your next celebration with purpose, and let your special moments be a source of hope for others.

Mark your special moments by transforming them into hope for someone else. Instead of traditional gifts or red packets, you can invite friends, family, colleagues or clients to give to HCSA Community Services in honour of a special occasion.

Whether it’s a birthday, wedding, anniversary, graduation or company milestone, your celebration can help:

• Ex-offenders take brave steps towards reintegration

• Teenage girls receive therapy and care as they recover from trauma

• Single-parent families access practical support and community

• Low-wage workers upgrade their skills and provide a better life for their loved ones

We can provide giving links or QR codes, and simple message templates you can share with your guests. Every well-wish becomes a gift of second chances.

From neighbourhood events to school and youth-led projects, your community can come together to support second chances.

You can organise your own fundraiser such as:

• A charity fair, sports day, walk or run

• A family fun day, concert or talent show

• A school or youth initiative like a bake sale, carnival booth or house challenge

These community efforts raise vital funds for HCSA Community Services’ programmes, while also building empathy and awareness among children, youths and families.

Together, you help:

• Ex-offenders feel seen and supported

• Youths recovering from trauma know they are not alone

• Single-parent families feel less isolated

• Low-wage workers feel encouraged as they work to stabilise their households

We are happy to journey with you by providing basic fundraising guidelines, stories you can share, and simple resources to use at your event.

Engage your colleagues in a meaningful workplace challenge that brings your organisation together for a good cause.

Your organisation can:

• Organise a steps or fitness challenge where staff clock distance or time and raise funds together

• Run an internal campaign (for example, “Dress-down Fridays for Second Chances”) where staff give regularly over a set period

• Create a themed challenge linked to your industry or culture, and invite employees to fundraise as teams

These initiatives foster teamwork, staff engagement and purpose, while directing much-needed support to HCSA Community Services’ work with:

• Ex-offenders

• Youths recovering from trauma

• Single-parent families

• Low-wage workers striving to provide more stability for their households

We can work with you to align the challenge to your CSR objectives, staff interests and internal communication plans.
