About us:
Mamre Oaks Ltd is a Day Activity Centre, a non-profit organization and a member organisation of Caritas Singapore.

Mamre Oaks aims to empower the persons with intellectual disabilities to lead lives of meaning, dignity and fulfilment, to provide and create an environment where the persons with intellectual disabilities are welcomed, respected and valued regardless of their difference abilities.

Being an integral part of the Catholic Church, Mamre Oaks will carry out its businesses according to the Church's Catholic Social Teachings. We are founded on Catholic soil and we warmly welcome all regardless of their race and religion.
