Our vision is of an inclusive society for all ages that optimises opportunities in longevity.

Our mission is to advance a positive transformation of the ageing experience, we seek constructive mindset and systemic change through innovation and advocacy in community-based eldercare, training and education, policy relevant research and collaboration.

We are motivated by the spirit of innovation to find ways to improve the quality of life of older persons.

In the pursuit of excellence, we set high professional standards for ourselves and for the services we provide. As a catalyst for constructive change, we actively promote scholarly research on ageing issues, invite distinguished scholars to share their expertise, and support policy planners through dialogue and feedback.

Established in 1993, Tsao Foundation is a Singapore-registered charity with Institute of Public Character (IPC) status. We are engaged in the global response to ageing and longevity through four synergistic core initiatives:

Community for Successful Ageing pulls together multiple components of successful ageing - multidisciplinary health and social services, personal empowerment and participation, and policymaking, to create a unique ecosystem where people thrive as they age.
