Illuminate Lives: Join the Rare Disease Fund’s Tree of Hope Fundraising Campaign

In the spirit of giving, the Rare Disease Fund (RDF) launches the Tree of Hope fundraising campaign to support those battling rare diseases in Singapore. With up to 3,000 individuals affected, including approximately 700 children, the RDF seeks to alleviate the financial strain on families facing lifelong care for their loved ones.

Managed by the KKH Health Fund, a part of the SingHealth Fund, and in collaboration with KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital (KKH), the Tree of Hope initiative is further endorsed by the Ministry of Health. This campaign aims to bring hope and assistance to those in need during this festive season.

Supporting the Tree of Hope Campaign

Running until 19 December 2023, individuals can contribute to the Tree of Hope. Eligible donations made before the year ends will receive a 250% tax deduction during the next tax season.
