The 'My Singapore Project' is in its fourth year running. Led by local singer and composer Lorraine Tan , this movement has grown from a small individual project to a large scale one that involves schools, education institutions as well as like-minded individuals from the broader community who believe in helping the less fortunate through music. Every year, Lorraine will create an original song and music video in celebration of National Day, with the hope of inspiring fellow Singaporeans to help the less fortunate as they pursue their dreams and work towards their goals. Her song and music video in support of ST School Pocket Money Fund last year had garnered over 240 thousand views and awesome comments on YouTube.
