Target Amount Raised: S$300,000.
Net proceeds go to the Employability and Employment Centre (E2C).
On 19 March 2012, Autism Resource Centre launched the Employability and Employment Centre (E2C) with the goal to provide the necessary job training and support to enable the person with autism to perform optimally in the workplace.
People with autism can be valuable members of the work force. They can be hardworking, reliable and productive. People with autism have their own unique niches and preferences for certain types of jobs, which should be matched to employment opportunities. Some of the most common jobs are cleaning, Food & Beverage (F&B), stocking, and office work. However, there are other jobs that people with autism can perform. Many people with autism also have special talents in areas such as art, music, computing, and Maths.
The E2C has already launched several successful pilot programmes with valuable partners and satisfied employers. This is concrete evidence that with the right training and support, people with autism can work.
The need to scale up this programme to benefit the large pool of adults with autism awaiting training and employment opportunities, leading to independence, is urgent. We need your support.
