Small acts create big ripples. Since launching our Pay It Forward initiative on 1 April 2025, your kindness has turned into measurable, life-changing support! And today we have even more to celebrate: Joyful Soul Psychology is now verified as an Emerging Social Enterprise by raiSE (the Singapore Centre for Social Enterprise), w.e.f. November 2025.
A heartfelt thank you
As of 31 October 2025, our Pay It Forward initiative has allocated 28 sessions to beneficiaries for psychology and speech therapy. We are deeply thankful! Every gift, share, and purchase is an investment in dignity, care, and real social impact
These sessions have offered essential support such as:
- Personalised communication practice
- Emotional regulation and coping strategies
- One-to-one guidance from qualified clinicians
- Parenting support for caregivers navigating daily challenges
These are more than numbers — they represent real lives uplifted, real families supported, and a more inclusive community made possible because of you.
Thank you for believing in care that is human, accessible, and grounded in compassion.
Growing social connection: Jolly Buddies Club
Beyond clinical sessions, our Jolly Buddies Club (a befriending programme for young adults with special needs) has ran 10 outings between June 2025 and November 2025. These social activities build community, reduce isolation, and give beneficiaries opportunities to practise social and life skills in real-world settings. At the same time, giving their parents and caregivers respite opportunities.
Why raiSE verification matters
Being verified by raiSE — the national centre for social enterprise in Singapore — strengthens the credibility of our mission. This independent recognition confirms our commitment to ethical practice, good governance, and measurable social impact. It also opens doors to networks, funding, capacity-building and partnership opportunities that help us scale programmes that truly matter: our Pay It Forward vouchers, Community Store, befriending initiatives like Jolly Buddies Club, counselling and coaching services for community professionals and community professional students, as well as special needs training for educators, parents and caregivers.
Put simply: raiSE verification helps us operate more transparently, collaborate more effectively, and reach more people in need.
More than sponsorships, a community of care
Support comes in many forms: buying from our Community Store, sharing our posts, or simply reading and talking about our work. These actions amplify our reach and help more people access the care they need.
Help us finish the year strong
As the year-end approaches, we invite you to consider one more act of kindness. Year-end contributions help us begin 2026 with funds ready to allocate, reducing wait times and ensuring continuity of care for beneficiaries.
