Sustainable philanthropy
NCSS empowers businesses to adopt a long-term strategic approach to support the community with greater social impact.
Last updated 12 November 2025
Overview
As social needs grow more complex, strengthening our ecosystem of support for individuals and families requires collaboration across the public, private, and people sectors.
As more businesses engage in the social service sector through corporate social responsibility programmes, it is essential for them to adopt a strategic approach, moving from ad-hoc giving to achieving sustained impact and tangible outcomes. Through our Sustainable Philanthropy Framework, NCSS aims to support corporates to take on a sustained and longer-term approach to give back to the community and strengthen Singapore’s social compact.
