Community Chest

Founded in 1983, the Community Chest was created to tap on the generosity of individuals, companies and institutions to fund voluntary welfare programmes in Singapore. With Singapore’s changing demographics and the harsh social and economic pressures of the modern world, the demand for both structured and voluntary social services has grown exponentially and that is where the Community Chest has stepped in to fill the void.

Today, there are over 200 Voluntary Welfare Organisations (VWOs) in Singapore. They have each developed programmes and projects to help a significant number of disadvantaged people in our community.
