Six programmes, one purpose.
Every programme the Society runs exists to achieve a stated objective in our constitution. Each is approved by the General Assembly, and each is accountable to it.
Financial empowerment
Building economic independence, not dependency.
The largest of our programme areas. It exists to foster financial empowerment and economic independence among members, to encourage responsible financial habits, a savings culture, budgeting and investment awareness, and to create a trusted platform for mutual funding and savings.
Welfare
Support at the moments a family cannot carry alone.
Welfare work is coordinated by the Welfare Officer, an elected member of the Executive Committee, and delivered through the Welfare Committee. It serves the objective of improving the social and economic well-being of members and their families.
Education
Opening doors for members and their children.
Education programmes serve two constitutional objectives: organising educational and professional development programmes, and promoting access to education through scholarships, mentorship and educational assistance.
Humanitarian work
Service directed outward, to those most in need.
The Society supports charitable and humanitarian activities for vulnerable persons and communities. This work is not limited to members — it is how the Society meets its obligation of community service.
Health
Care and awareness carried into the community.
Health programmes promote health awareness and support health-related initiatives, delivered where members and their neighbours actually live.
Public awareness
Teaching what we practise.
The Society organises seminars, conferences, rallies, workshops and campaigns on teamwork, leadership, financial literacy and social development. This work is promoted by the Public Relations Officer.
We do not work alone
Our constitution commits the Society to collaborating with governmental institutions, non-governmental organisations, development agencies, cooperatives and other organisations pursuing similar goals.
If your organisation works in any of the six areas above and you see a basis for working together, we would like to hear from you.
Benefits are privileges, not entitlements
The Society may establish welfare, savings, support and assistance schemes for members. Loans, savings schemes, emergency support, scholarships, welfare benefits, repayment procedures and eligibility conditions are each governed by specific regulations approved by the General Assembly. As our constitution states plainly, the benefits provided by the Society are not private entitlements but privileges subject to its rules.
