Charities we support

Whether you are new to the island or a longstanding resident, getting involved in charitable giving and volunteering can be a great way to make a positive difference to others while enriching your own Singapore experience.

The British Association select 2-3 charities on an annual or bi-annual basis.  The selection for 2024 and 2025 is in progress and this webpage will be updated once complete.

To be selected for support from us, charities must demonstrate that they operate efficiently and transparently, that they offer services for which there is a need, and that donations will have a significant and tangible impact. 

You can find all the latest calls for volunteers from our charities here.

Email Chris on charities@britishassociation.org.sg for more details on how to get involved.

 

Recently supported charities include:

 

Riding for the Disabled Association Singapore

Riding for the Disabled Association Singapore (RDA) provides equine-assisted therapeutic sessions to children and adults with intellectual, cognitive and/or physical disabilities. RDA provides this therapy free of charge to its beneficiaries and receives no direct government funding. It relies on donations to continue to provide its much needed services.

Its Raining Raincoats

Its Raining Raincoats is a Singapore charity that runs various initiatives to support and benefit migrant workers in Singapore. Its goal is to find ways to help migrant workers to integrate into the community and to connect them with the residents of Singapore. As well as needing donations, the organisation has a number of great initiatives where you can donate your time, friendship and support to migrant workers.

Action for Singapore Dogs

Action for Singapore Dogs is a non-profit organisation which aims to improve the welfare of stray and abandoned dogs in Singapore. It rescues, fosters and re-homes stray and abandoned dogs and advocates for Singapore's local dogs, the Singapore Specials. It takes a lot to help dogs in need, particularly as stray and abandoned dogs can suffer injuries and sickness. Donations support medical and shelter operations and there are also a number of ways in which you can support by volunteering.
