People Of Good

People Who Care, and Act For Others

Little acts, when multiplied by millions, can make a world of difference towards Singapore becoming the City of Good.

All of us were born to be good, and to do good. If our mindsets shift toward being more other-centred, we will realise that every person matters and each one of us can make a difference to others in so many ways, large and small. 

Together, let us become the #CityofGood! 

Donate, volunteer and fundraise with Giving.sg – Singapore’s largest online giving platform, as we make giving fun, simple and meaningful for you. Kickstart your giving journey, explore 14 causes with over 500 different local charities and give to the causes you’re passionate about today.

SG Cares Giving Week is a national movement that celebrates the spirit of giving and seeks to make giving part of our way of life. It is a time when brands, non-profits and people give and share their Time, Talent, Treasure and Voice to support any cause they are passionate about in all ways, big and small.
