About YCF
The Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) has dedicated 2022 as the Year of Celebrating SG Families (YCF).
Fronted by Families for Life, YCF is a whole-of-society movement celebrating the importance of our families. In support of the Made For Families initiatives, families can look forward to family-friendly events, programmes and resources all year round designed to foster stronger families in our community.
• March to June 2022 – Celebrating Families: Celebrating different roles in families with the use of tentpole occasions such as Mother’s Day and Father’s Day to celebrate parents.
• July to September 2022 – Championing Family-friendly Workplaces and Culture: Championing family-friendly practices at workplaces can contribute to higher productivity amongst employees and lead to better business outcomes.
• October to December 2022 – Caring for Families: Caring society that embraces intergenerational, ageing, and diverse families.
Through YCF, we encourage everyone to build positive relationships with their immediate and extended families by putting the family values - love, care and concern, commitment and respect - into action.
About the YCF Logo
The YCF logo is based on the design of a tree, and celebrates the deep-rooted bonds that families in Singapore enjoy.
Presented in the shape of a person with arms outstretched and feet on the ground; the tree signifies the values of strength, stability, rootedness, and the generations that comprise a family.
The deep roots represent strong foundations that children need to grow up with. The leaves are in vibrant and colourful hues; each representing the four family values of love, care and concern, commitment, and respect; and highlighting the unyielding shade, protection and care that families provide. Generations to come will continue to enjoy its shade, flowers, and fruits for sustenance.
