The NTU School of Social Sciences has organised “Project Shoebox” in collaboration with Collins Aerospace (a world leader in aeronautical engineering) to give Christmas gifts to the children from orphanages and homes. This is the first Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) project which NTU School of Social Sciences is collaborating with Collins Aerospace.

The Project Shoebox campaign runs from 14 November to 30 November 2022 where SSS faculty, SSS staff, CoHASS faculty, CoHASS staff, family and friends of CoHASS and Collins Aerospace staff are invited to participate in this campaign by donating giftboxes and filling them with gifts to be given to about 200 children in homes/orphanages. We have distributed the giftboxes to the children in homes/orphanages on 7, 20 and 21 December 2022.

Prof Yohanes Eko Riyanto (Chair of School of Social Sciences), Prof Jonathan Tan (Assistant Chair, Internship, Exchange, Alumni & Communications) and Belinda Lim (Manager, Continuing Education, Alumni & External Relations) of School of Social Sciences at NTU have visited all 7 homes together with 2 representatives from Collins Aerospace while delivering the giftboxes to the homes.

The homes that have benefitted from the “Project Shoebox” are The Salvation Army Gracehaven, The Salvation Army The Haven, MWS Girls' Residence, HCSA Community Services, Singapore Boys' Hostel, Willing Hearts Orphanage and Darul Ihsan Orphanage.
