The Singapore Business Federation (SBF) Foundation is dedicated to mobilising businesses to grow their social impact and contribute meaningfully to community. At the Foundation, we believe that people are at the heart of every business, and that businesses, in turn, have the power to shape a more compassionate and inclusive society.
Vision:
A compassionate, purpose-driven business community that advances inclusive employment, stronger communities, and sustainable business practices in Singapore.
Mission:
We mobilise the business community, partners, and resources to create pathways that advance inclusion, employability, and other strategic sustainable priorities, catalyse high-impact collaborations, and deliver measurable outcomes.
Impact Statement:
Business leading change for an inclusive Singapore.
We advance our mission through three key pillars and related programmes:
Inspiring action through understanding.
We envision a Singapore where companies are aware of the positive impact they can make. Through initiatives like the Community Marketplace and In Their Shoes, we help companies better gain deeper insights into social issues – sparking awareness, fostering empathy, and the motivation to contribute meaningfully.
Turning awareness into action.
We support businesses in embedding purpose into their operations by offering programmes that facilitate positive social change, such as:
Championing corporate purpose and inspiring others.
We aim to build a culture where companies not only act with purpose but encourage others to do the same. Through platforms like the Corporate Purpose Initiative and Fundraising Campaigns, we empower companies to lead by example, advocating for purpose-driven action within their industry and beyond.
