charity donation Singapore

Arts creation is at the centre of The Foundation’s ambition to build a network of patrons to elevate the soft power of the arts.

By growing the canon of Singapore music through original works and promoting multidisciplinary arts projects, our charitable organization works to cultivate the next generation of Singapore’s artistes and arts literacy in the community through education & outreach programmes.

And that’s just the first step in our vision to promote the arts as the creative impulse that drives a first-world society.

The Foundation’s mission is to be the catalyst that generates high-impact arts initiatives, through strategic fundraising to achieve international recognition for Singapore works and artistes on the global stage.

We take a holistic interventionist approach with its projects, engaging meaningfully with arts supporters and donors, the government and corporates to help drive the organization’s goals toward a vibrant arts ecosystem.
