Speaker of Parliament, Mr Tan Chuan-Jin has donated his first solo photography book in support of the Yellow Ribbon Fund (YRF), the first and only national charity devoted to fund programmes and services for ex-offenders and their families. YRF is focused on enabling and equipping inmates and ex-offenders into society.

The 178-page photobook includes photos of people, landscapes and city scenes he came across during his travels to countries such as New Zealand, Amsterdam, Siem Reap and Moscow. A section of the book is dedicated to Singapore, recording special landmarks such as the Rail Corridor and Bukit Brown Cemetery.

The photobooks are available at $1,000 each.

Special edition of the photobook comes with a personalised handwritten message by Mr Tan and it is available at $2,000 each!

We also have a selection of metallic photo prints (66cm x 44cm) of exclusive photos taken by Mr Tan which are not available in the photobook, up for sale! You can get your exclusive photo print and a special edition of the photobook at a bundled price of $5,888!
Contact Ms Carol Ho at Carol [email protected] or Tel: 6214 2832 for a catalogue of the photo prints.

Your support will open more doors of hope for the ex-offenders and their families.

Your purchase is entitled to 250% tax deduction. Please provide your full information for tax deduction and delivery purposes.

About the Charity

Every year, more than 9,000 ex-offenders complete their sentences and are released from the various prisons and drug rehabilitation centres (DRCs). It is disheartening that ex-offenders have to live with the stigma of having served time behind bars when they are released from prison, one that can often be more punishing than the prison sentence itself. Many ex-offenders, once released, find themselves literally stepping into a second prison. This time it would be a prison with invisible bars, of suspicion, of mistrust and of discrimination.The best rehabilitation regime during incarceration is of no use if ex-offenders find themselves rejected at every turn when they are released into the larger community.Your generous donation to the Yellow Ribbon Fund will go a long way to help us fund rehabilitative and aftercare programmes, which are the supporting mechanisms to facilitate the reintegration of an individual back to the community and his family.
