Community Chest

As Singapore’s cornerstone for caring and sharing, Community Chest has rallied the community in service of the nation’s vulnerable and needy since 1983. FairPrice Foundation collaborated with Community Chest to support the programmes and initiatives of the social service agencies it works with, such as the Heartstrings Buy and Community Chest Charity TV Show donation drives.
