Frequently Asked Questions

We started the Date Well Project (DWP) to reinvent the dating culture in Malaysia because tbh, we were sick and tired of dating apps. We are a socially conscious enterprise aimed at connecting like-minded singles at fun and meaningful offline dating events (i.e. Mingles, Speed Dates, Volun-dates) while creating social impact. All events support fundraising for charitable organizations. Meet someone new and support social impact. Sounds like a win-win eh?

We also organize Volun-dates for Couples/Groups as well as for corporate teambuilding.

If you are single, above 21 years old, ready to meet someone new, a Malaysian citizen or permanently living here, NOT an axe murderer/scammer/soliciting business for your latest MLM venture, and you want to be more purposeful with dating, join us for our events! Register for our events here.

We usually hold them at venues across Klang Valley, ranging from art studios to volunteer centres to cozy restaurants. If you would like to collaborate with us as a venue provider, please write to hello@thedatewellproject.com

Mingles are small-scale events where singles (we try to get an equal ratio of males and females) get to mingle with each other. It is lightly facilitated. Our debut event is a Paint and Mingle event. Ideal for those seeking new experiences in an intimate setting.

Speed Dates are events where singles get a 5-mins speed date with each date. This is more facilitated and is a fun way to get to know someone. We would be curate some cards containing questions that you can ask your date. Ideal for those who like it fast-paced.

Volun-dates (volunteer + dating) is a meaningful way to get to know someone on a deeper level. We would be collaborating with local NGOs for a range of activities from volunteering with animal shelters to packing food for the food bank to cleaning up the beach. Ideal for those seeking connections through working on a common goal.

We run two versions of Volun-dates: Volun-dates for Singles and Volun-dates for Couples/Groups.

Please refer to What We Do for more information on the different events.
