What types of projects does Tote Board fund?

Tote Board touches lives and cares for Singaporeans through its broad-based funding support for social and community well-being. Its grantmaking philosophy centres on three core pillars:
Relevance: supporting projects that align with national priorities and its four strategic outcomes, addressing complex challenges and emerging needs in Singapore.
Innovation: prioritising social innovation and new initiatives that drive social change, experimenting with diverse grantmaking approaches and fostering cross-sector synergies for improved community outcomes.
Impact: collaborating with partners from the People, Private, Public, and Philanthropy sectors, focusing on programmes that yield positive social outcomes. Tote Board's Impact Measurement Framework guides, manages and maximises the impact of its work, optimising resources for greater effectiveness.
The four strategic outcomes of Tote Board's grantmaking are:
CARE: Encouraging active participation in healthy living and well-being at all stages of life
COMPACT: Uplifting vulnerable members and their families in our society by maximising their opportunities and potential to make meaningful contributions towards our social compact
