Honour the Past. Celebrate the Now. Inspire the Future.
On 21 August 2025, AfCAS proudly hosted Tapestry, a vibrant evening that brought our community together in a celebration of multiculturalism, compassion, and inclusion.
Tapestry was more than just an evening of incredible entertainment—it was a powerful reminder of the impact we can make together as a community. The event shone a light on the challenges faced by senior migrants living with dementia, allowing us to raise awareness about an issue close to our organization's heart. Together, we also raised much-needed funds to support the wellbeing of these senior migrants. Thanks to the generosity of our guests, the funds raised will go directly towards outings and activities that uplift and support the mental health of migrant seniors cared for by AfCAS and their dedicated volunteers.
Guided by our motto, “Honour the Past. Celebrate the Now. Inspire the Future.”, Tapestry perfectly reflected the mission and spirit of AfCAS. We work to bring together those of diverse ages and cultural backgrounds, providing them with companionship and a space to share their cultural traditions. While we remain committed to improving the lives of today's migrant seniors, we are equally focused on bringing together a compassionate and charitable community that will help continue our mission for generations to come.
A Celebration of Culture and Talent
