SINGAPORE - Set up in 1983 to raise funds and allow the social sector to focus on serving those in need, Community Chest has grown to support a hundred social agencies and benefits almost 100,000 people each year.

This type of cooperation will multiply beneficial outcomes, said Senior Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam at the launch of the 4ST Partnership Fund. The Senior Minister also cited HCSA Community Services’ Dayspring SPIN initiative, under which the organisation collaborates with universities and NGOs to provide practical support to single parents.

Community Chest has raised the first $2 million for the 4ST Partnership Fund, for which SSAs, social enterprises and ground-up groups can apply to fund collaborative projects.
