THE SPACE

Expanding horizons, changing lives

THE SPACE

When I first came across =DREAMS, I was moved by its mission to provide a residential boarding school exclusively for children from disadvantaged backgrounds. I was inspired by how the campus would provide an environment where the children could be empowered and aspire for a better life.

The RealVantage team is privileged to be able to conceptualise THE SPACE, a creative and digital space within the campus where the children can explore, create and express themselves in a meaningful way. Our hope is that this space would help them expand their horizons and discover their potential.

Every child deserves a comfortable, secure, and caring environment

"While 90% of Singapore households live in homes of their own, corporates and the community must look to how they can help the 10% who may need socio-economic support, especially with their children's holistic development."

Every child deserves a comfortable environment

Empowering promising and aspiring children to break out of poverty by providing them with opportunities to fulfill their potential in a safe, learning, residential environment.

We invite you to join us in making THE SPACE come to life

We invite you to join us
We were fortunate enough to have gathered like-minded partners who spontaneously rolled up their sleeves and got to work pro bono in building out THE SPACE. Communities need resources to thrive and I am keenly aware that donations are crucial. However, through the process of creating THE SPACE, we also realised the value of donating time to the cause.
RealVantage wants to make an impact and change lives for the better. We have a vision for THE SPACE and invite you to join us in making our vision come to life. We deeply appreciate your generous support.
Thank you for your generosity.
