The Archdiocesan Commission for the Pastoral Care of Migrants & Itinerant People (ACMI) serves all migrants in Singapore through welcoming, protecting, promoting, and integrating them into our community—regardless of their nationality, race, religion, or socioeconomic status.

  • Case Management and Counselling

Every year, Caritas Singapore assesses the needs of its member organisations to fund programmes that serve our brothers and sisters in need. Our grant allocation takes into consideration funding gaps for underserved needs, the social mission organisation’s funding priorities, and the effectiveness and measurable impact of the charity’s programmes and services. All grant distribution decisions are announced in our annual report.
