Media Release

Building caring and inclusive communities through CDC Vouchers Donation Scheme

27 November 2023

Media Release for the CDC Vouchers Donation Scheme 2023

The Community Development Councils (CDC) organised a networking luncheon for 300 guests from charity organisations on 27 November 2023 at the People's Association Auditorium. The event was hosted by Mayors Low Yen Ling, Denise Phua, Alex Yam, Mohd Fahmi Aliman and North East CDC Vice Chairman Shamsul Kamar, PBM. The Guest-of-Honour (GOH) was Mr Edwin Tong, Minister for Culture, Community & Youth, Second Minister for Law and Deputy Chairman of the People’s Association.

Ms Low Yen Ling, Chairman, Mayors' Committee and Mayor of South West District, welcomed guests and took the opportunity to share on CDCs' refreshed mission coinciding with its 25th anniversary last year. She shared about CDCs' shifts in community engagement approach and outlined five strategic directions for the CDCs – building caring, inclusive, healthy, learning and sustainable communities. These community pillars, aligning with ForwardSG, underscores CDC's efforts to adapt to increasingly complex needs in the community amidst a changing social landscape post-COVID. The CDC Vouchers Donation campaign is part of CDCs’ efforts to build caring and inclusive communities, enabling opportunities for the community to use their CDC vouchers to uplift the lives of others in need.

GOH Minister Edwin Tong was invited to announce the start of the CDC Vouchers Donation Scheme 2023 which will take place from 1 December 2023 until 31 January 2024. Since early November 2023, about 99% of Singaporean households have claimed their CDC Vouchers 2023, and of this, about 88% have been spent at participating hawkers, heartland merchants and supermarkets. He also announced key figures for CDC Vouchers Donation Scheme 2021/2022, where about 9,880 households donated about $1.19 million worth of CDC Vouchers to 245 participating charities (who are also an Institution of a Public Character (IPC)).
