Singapore Cancer Society (SCS)

Minimising Cancer and Maximising Lives since 1964, the Singapore Cancer Society (SCS) is a self-funded Social Service Agency which provides an integrated continuum of care from cancer control and prevention to patient support services, survivorship and palliative care. SCS’ key programmes & services include cancer screening programmes, public education, financial and welfare services, psychosocial support, survivorship, rehabilitation programmes and hospice care. SCS attained the coveted Charity Governance Award (CGA) and Charity Transparency Award (CTA) 2023 for upholding high governance and transparency standards.

 

As the Society forges ahead in 2024, it commemorates its 60th anniversary of improving the lives of Singaporeans and the cancer community. Specially curated programmes continuously reinforce SCS’ four key strategic thrusts:

  • To reduce the incidence of cancer
  • To increase the survival rates
  • To improve the quality of life of cancer patients and survivors
  • To rally the community to take proactive action and join the fight against cancer

All donations flow into SCS General Funds where we deploy the funds to cancer awareness and prevention, free cancer screening services, financial assistance, rehabilitation services, psychosocial services, cancer support services and home hospice care.

 

In 2023 alone, SCS screened more than 124,000 individuals and provided more than $2 million in financial support. To date, SCS has disbursed more than $46 million via the Cancer Treatment Fund, the Cancer Care Fund and Welfare Aid Fund and others, benefitting more than 23,000 beneficiaries. The one-of-its-kind cancer rehabilitation centre has provided rehab services to more than 2,600 cancer patients and the varied support groups supported nearly 2,000 members, with programmes catered to all stages of cancer patients and survivors. Indeed, the Society is a beacon of light to many cancer patients, survivors, and their families.

 

For 2024, SCS needs about $30 million to run the programmes and services. Your donation will go a long way to assist our cancer warriors, giving them hope for the future.
