Causes We Support
The Community Foundation of Singapore (CFS) operates on a cause-neutral basis and supports a wide range of community needs. Leveraging our extensive experience and robust connections with the government and non-profit organisations, we identify and promote effective programmes that support valuable causes and strengthen our society.
Our causes are aligned to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework to provide a broad array of opportunities for donors to integrate their philanthropy and ESG efforts.
Based on our thorough assessment of community needs, we have identified 13 outcome-centred causes for our grantmaking efforts. This strategic approach ensures that our philanthropic endeavours yield meaningful results for the environment and the community.
