Announcing Back to the Future: The Time Traveller’s Ball!

On 2 November, we promise another wonderful evening of delicious food and drinks, great company and wicked, unforgettable fun, as we raise funds to create a more gender-equal, fair and caring society. Our all-time favourite entertainer, Pam Oei, will host this year’s show with award-winning comedian Rishi Budhrani. The well-loved Alamak Awards return with a twist as we showcase Singapore’s most atrocious and ridiculous sexist moments—from the last 200 years. This year’s special edition 200 Years of Alamaks will be written and directed by the prodigiously talented team of Joel Tan, Jo Tan and Elaine Chan.

When: Saturday, 2 November 2019, 6.30 pm
Where: Island Ballroom, Shangri-la Hotel
Dress Theme: Retro/Futuristic (We have prizes for best-dressed guests so we highly encourage you to be as creative and outrageous as possible!)

Why support the Time Traveller’s Ball? As our main fundraiser of the year, our Ball is critical in raising 25% of our funds. This keeps our work alive—from the day-to-day specialised support provided by our Women’s Helpline and Sexual Assault Care Centre, to our long-standing research and advocacy.

This year, we are shining the spotlight on our research and advocacy work: how it has contributed to changes in the legal and cultural landscape, including the repeal of discriminatory and egregious laws such as marital immunity for rape. It took up to a decade of steadfast and persistent advocacy to achieve that monumental change in our country’s sexual violence laws. But we cannot and will not stop here.

How can you support the Time Traveller’s Ball? We hope that you will stand with us and continue to support our work by:
