“Tzu Chi” (慈济 cí jì), which means “compassionate relief” in Chinese, is an international NGO that has provided humanitarian aid to the needy in over 90 nations worldwide, regardless of race and religion. The Buddhist spirit of loving-kindness and compassion is at the core of our work and Missions.

Buddhist Compassion Relief Tzu Chi Foundation (Singapore) announces the merger of “Local Relief Fund” and “General Fund” with effect from 1 January 2019.
The new fund is known as “Charity Development Fund”, which encompasses purposes of both funds, enabling us to reach out to more beneficiaries in the community.
If you require more information, please email fundmerger@tzuchi.org.sg by 30 June 2019 for clarification.
You may find more information at https://fundmerger.tzuchi.org.sg/. Your support for our fund merger is greatly appreciated.
Buddhist Compassion Relief Tzu Chi Foundation (Singapore) and Buddhist Tzu Chi Merit Organization (Singapore) Ltd. are not organising any street fundraising events (e.g. Flag Day). If you encounter such activities in the public, please be vigilant and call our hotline 65829958 for verification.
The recent fundraising activity, ‘Save For A Good Cause’ campaign, is to encourage the public to give rise to kindness and save a little each day in a Tzu Chi bamboo coin bank, to help those in need.
Please note that information on all our fundraising activities will be published on our official English and Chinese websites, and all our volunteers soliciting donations will be in full uniform, with a valid fundraising permit issued by relevant government authorities.
