Buddhist Compassion Relief Tzu Chi Foundation (Singapore) is proposing a merger of the Local Relief Fund and General Fund, which will take effect from 1st January 2019, once all, if not the majority of, the donors’ consents are obtained. The new fund will be known as Charity Development Fund, which shall encompass the purposes of both the Local Relief Fund and General Fund. You may find more information at https://fundmerger.tzuchi.org.sg/.
Please be noted that consent is deemed to be obtained if we do not hear from our donors by 31 December 2018. And donations from 1st September 2018 onwards are deemed to be made with the donors' awareness about the funds merger and their consent to it.
To support the post-disaster rebuilding efforts in Sulawesi, Buddhist Tzu Chi Merit Organization (Singapore) Ltd. will be organising street fundraising in the community heartlands from 4 - 25 Nov.
All our volunteers soliciting donations will be in Tzu Chi uniform or volunteer vest, with a valid fundraising permit issued by relevant government authorities.
If you encounter anyone not in Tzu Chi uniform or volunteer vest soliciting donation in the name of Tzu Chi in the public, please be vigilant and call our hotline (65) 65829958 for verification.
