Community Service Projects (CSP)

What is a CSP?

It is a project by a group of people in one of Operation Hope Foundation's oversea facilities, We have hosted many different groups, some of which are sponsored by the Singapore International Foundation's YEP program.

One of OHF's objective is to provide opportunities for Singaporeans to help the poor overseas. Because we have Singaporeans based in our overseas projects, we are able to plan and co-ordinate meaningful community service projects.

Groups that undertake such CSP's are:

  1. Youth Groups
  2. Church Groups
  3. Tertiary Institutions
  4. Schools

Contact our administrator at admin@ohf.org.sg if you want to organise such a project.

What we hope to achieve

Besides helping the local communities, CSP exposes Singaporeans to the poverty in third world countries. Our perception of "suffering" changes when we see how hard life is for others. We hope these projects will show how we can make a difference to the lives of others and encourage them to do more for the poor.

These projects also teaches team work, tolerance to each other under difficult conditions and problem solving in an unfamiliar environment.

Schools' CSP projects

Riverside Secondary School has designed an English teaching program using Powerpoint. With  graphics, pictures and  words in Khmer, this self-teaching program will be used in Hope Village Prey Veng to teach English, first to the children and then to the community. This is but of of the many examples where schools have worked with Operation Hope on their CIP projects.
