Over 45,000 children were reported missing in Canada in 2011. That’s one child every 11 minutes. When a child first goes missing, the police, the media and the community all rally together to help the terrified and anxious family search for their child, but as time goes by, that involvement inevitably decreases. It is for these families that the Missing Children Society of Canada (MCSC) was established in 1986. Our unique and comprehensive programs serve families in the critical hours after a child goes missing and provide ongoing support until the child is found, investigative programs that assist police and searching families, mental health programs that help families deal with the emotional consequences of a missing child, and critical awareness generating campaigns that allow us to provide essential support for searching families. We are 100% funded by donations. And we provide our services at no cost to families.
The mission of our organization is to end generational poverty, one child at a time. We do this through an intense research-based mentoring program that pairs paid professional mentors 1:1 with some of the most vulnerable children in the community, starting from ages 4-6 years old, until they graduate from high school, 12+ years, no matter what! Our three long-term goals are to ensure that every child graduates from high school or obtains a GED; prevent entry into the juvenile justice system; and prevent teenage pregnancy. We have a more than 80% success rate in each long-term goal in our national network. Our model is estimated to have a $7 Return on Investment (ROI) for $1 invested, according to a study conducted by Harvard University.
To accelerate generational change, we identify youth facing the toughest challenges and connect them with professional mentors who guide them to develop their greatest potential and achieve their goals. From kindergarten through graduation, no matter what.

CARE Singapore exists to help vulnerable young people find direction, hope and success. We employ a multi-dimensional approach that engages and empowers youths, schools, families and communities. CARE's mission is to help youths succeed. Every person is useful and has something positive to contribute. At-risk youths can be social assets instead of social liabilities. By being there for those who need a little more support, we can help change their future. Archimedes famously said, Give me a fulcrum and I will move the world. CARE's chosen fulcrum is working with AT-RISK YOUTHS.
