Who We Are

From giving to impact

The Community Foundation of Singapore (CFS) was founded in 2008 to encourage and enable philanthropy in Singapore. 

We match donors’ interests with causes and offer ways for them to make a greater impact through their charitable funds. With our deep understanding of local issues and evolving needs, CFS identifies gaps and opportunities in the community to foster more effective giving.

We engage with charity partners to identify programmes that impact diverse communities. More importantly, we manage funds and grants with a high level of accountability, so donors can be assured their gifts create lasting benefit.

By enabling real and meaningful change, CFS hopes to inspire a philanthropic culture and build a more caring and cohesive society in Singapore. CFS is a registered charity with Institution of Public Character status.

What is a community foundation?

A community foundation brings people and organisations together to build and strengthen communities. 

It is a public charity that guides philanthropy and is dedicated to improving the quality of life in the area it serves. Individuals, families, businesses and organisations work with the community foundation to set up funds that help meet the challenges of changing times. 

The foundation manages these funds and gives out grants to support community needs.
