AGAPE CONNECTING PEOPLE

Agape is Greek for “Unconditional Love”. This was the very foundation and belief that Agape Connecting People Pte Ltd was founded.

Anil David, Agape’s founder, strongly believes that regardless of background and marginality, everyone with the desire and talent should be given an equal opportunity to succeed, thus transforming their lives and those around them. His story is told by a group of young filmmakers in a documentary directed by David Liem. In all, Anil has given employment to:

-85 prison inmates (his call centre manager is a fellow ex-convict, by the way)
-Six senior citizens
-Three people with disabilities
-Three single mums
-One stroke patient
