For his future.

Fundraiser set up for Tampines Ave 12 fatal crash victims' 6-year-old son

A fundraiser has been launched on Give.Asia to provide financial support for the six-year-old son of a couple who tragically died in a hit-and-run accident at Tampines Avenue 12. The couple, aged just 24, lost their lives when their motorcycle was struck by a car, which then collided with another vehicle. A 30-year-old man has been charged with dangerous driving causing death and eight other offenses following the incident.

An imposed gag order has prevented the media from identifying the victims and using any identifying information. The fundraiser was initiated by the cousin of the deceased man, who intends to create a dedicated savings account for the boy. As of now, the campaign has raised S$8,680.

The cousin expressed her heartfelt condolences, noting that the couple had recently married and were planning to apply for a Built-to-Order flat. She emphasized that no sum of money could ever replace the love and support of a mother and father. The campaign seeks to help everyone who has shown support by asking how they could assist the grieving family.

The family has come together to ensure the young boy receives the necessary care and opportunities as he grows up. Currently, he is under the guardianship of his late mother's relatives while legal arrangements are being made to determine his rightful guardians.
