About Give&Get

<<<<<>>>>>

If you have time and/or money, and want to GIVE these resources of yours to benefit others, do you know what is available out there for you to help?

If you are sick/disabled/hungry/destitute/etc or can't afford to pay your school fees, do you know where you can GET help?

If you belong to neither group above, but would like to answer the 2 questions, be it for yourself or for your contacts (both locals and foreigners), do you know where to find the answers quickly and conveniently?

This webpage aspires to answer all the aforementioned questions. It is a website for those on either side of the income divide in Singapore.

Its role is only that of a "matchmaker". Through this webpage, it is hope that those who want to GIVE help/money and those who need to GET help/money can easily "match" themselves to the relevant social/community/voluntary/charitable organisations. However, like any website you visit, the onus is still on you to exercise discretion before deciding whether to offer your help/money after identifying an organisation whose causes you believe in.
