About Campaign
ends 30 Sep 2022, 11:59 PMOver the past 58 years, SCS has established itself as a community-based voluntary welfare organisation dedicated to minimising the impact of cancer and maximising lives through research and advocacy, public education, screening, financial assistance, patient services and support, and rehabilitation. Every year, SCS needs to raise at least $20 million to drive our programmes and services to provide a holistic support system for the cancer community. We would not have been able to achieve this without the strong support from the public and corporate partners.
Your generous contribution will empower SCS to give hope and strength to our beneficiaries in their fight against cancer. All proceeds raised at the charity gala dinner will be channelled to SCS' patient care services.
About the Charity
Established in 1964, Singapore Cancer Society (SCS) is a self-funded voluntary welfare organisation which provides patient care services to needy cancer patients through its welfare, hospice home care, cancer treatment subsidy and rehabilitation support programmes. In addition, the Society also provides free cancer screening services and promotes cancer awareness and prevention through its public education and community outreach programmes.

- To reduce the incidence of cancer
- To increase survival rates
- To improve the quality of life of cancer patients and survivors
- To rally the community to take proactive action and join the fight against cancer
