Brother Emmanuel Belief Fund
Brother Emmanuel was a familiar and friendly face to many during his 63 years in Singapore. He is warmly remembered for his time as the principal of St. Gabriel’s School from1960-1963 and again in 1969-1974, and was a firm advocate of “Once A GABRIELITE, Always A GABRIELITE”.
To honour his vast contributions and genuine belief in nurturing the young, the ex-students of Brother Emmanuel have decided to set up the Brother Emmanuel’s Legacy In Education (BELIEF) fund as an enduring legacy of his faith in God & in the students of St. Gabriel’s schools.
The purpose of the BELIEF fund is to support the holistic development of students in St Gabriel’s Primary and Secondary Schools in the areas of:
a. Character & Spirituality
b. Leadership
c. Academic
d. Applied Knowledge
e. Aesthetics
f. Sports & Wellness

Brother Denis Care Fund
In 2014, a group of alumni from the St Gabriel’s Old Boys’ Association started the Bro Denis CARE Fund to honour the exemplary work of our dearly beloved teacher who had given so much of his love and dedication for students at St Gabriel’s.
The purpose of the fund is to:
-
pay tribute and remember the heritage that Bro Denis leaves us as a caring and dedicated educator
-
continue his life's work in caring especially for at-risk students in the NA and NT streams
The Bro Denis CARE Fund is raised through an annual subscription. The funds raised are used to partially subsidise the CARE programme that the school is partnering Children At Risk Empowerment (CARE) Singapore (a VWO specialising in youth work) to conduct for our lower secondary NA and NT students to build up their self-belief, intra-personal and inter-personal skills.
Other than classroom sessions, the youth workers from CARE Singapore also engage the students in meaningful after-school activities, as well as work closely with school staff like the form teachers, school counsellors etc to support those with more pressing and complex needs. Given that many of the students in these classes come from financially challenged families, this subsidy together with other MOE funds, really helps the make the programme accessible to them.
