Charting the Next L ap for MENDAKI’s Satellite Centres • The focus of the MENDAKI @ Mosques centres would be to go beyond the Mosques’ zakat recipients and target the entire mosque going community. E.g. Mosque kindergarten students, Mosque youths and Friday prayer congregants. • An Asset Based Community Development approach was adopted for the MENDAKI Integrated Hubs. By identifying, building on and mobilising local assets and resources, the intent would be to: o Go beyond transactional relationships and focus on journeying with families in their children’s education o Facilitating, enabling and empowering rather than delivering whole of community approach

Our MENDAKI @ Choa Chu Kang Journey
Resident Engagement • In the lead up to the formation of MENDAKI @ Choa Chu Kang, MENDAKI engaged residents in a series of discussions centred on: o Their aspirations for their families o Programmes and activities that would be relevant to them o Their talents and skills which they could gift to the community • The key focus was to encourage bonding amongst residents and a sense of connection to the centre. 12

Challenges & Opportunities Challenges Opportunities We learnt that: • Outreach approach not viable in Limited by Resources Collaborations long run -labour intensive - network of help agencies, schools, • The important role of “Pak Lurah/ Limited by Location mosques Ketua Kampong” ( connectors ) -not so ideal location for some centres Programme Expansion • Speak their language (channels of - Homework cafes at communications) Limited by Expertise RCs and mosques - capability to address some of the concerns
Leveraging on M 3 “Moving forward, th the e M³ ³ will ill be e th the e main in focal poin ints of f colla laborations with ith oth ther r community org rganizations. This will improve support for the community, allowing the support to be more integrated and sustained. … This vision must become an integral part of our culture. Then, not only will our community organizations be stronger, but more importantly, we will become exceptional as a community”. Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs Mr Masagos Zulkifli, in his speech during his Hari Raya Get Together on 28 Jun 2018
Journeying with Families The M 3 framework has provided MENDAKI with the perfect • opportunity to leverage on the networks provided by MUIS & MESRA and expand its programme reach. For example, KelasMateMatika@CC as M 3 ‘s first initiative, in collaboration with 4 CCs • Launch of M 3 @WGS in Jan 2019 serves as a physical manifestation of the M 3 framework, with a focus on: o Extending MENDAKI & MUIS’ outreach in the heartlands o Serve as an ideation hub for community driven initiatives o Contribute to the development of Wisma Geylang Serai as a community hub
