Apply for Funds

Grants from The Tan Chin Tuan Foundation encapsulate the founder's belief that business successes should be shared with society to help those less fortunate but given in a manner to ensure that the money granted achieves a clear social objective.

The Tan Chin Tuan Foundation has six primary focus areas:
Health, Education, Disabled, Children and Youth, Aged, General
