Sethisfy Personal Finance 2025 Fundraiser – Support Children With Cancer

As we enter the new year, please join me in raising funds to support children living with cancer. In an ideal world, no one would suffer from this illness, but it is a reality for many. If we are able, I hope that we can contribute what we can to ease the burden for children with cancer and their loved ones.

Past Fundraisers

Year	Charity	Amount
2020	Children’s Cancer Foundation Children’s Wishing Well	S$5,000 S$220
2021	Children’s Wishing Well	S$2,180

Glaringly absent are the years of 2022 and 2023. While it has been my sincere intention to help in ways that I can, it’s unfortunate how it convenient it was to prioritise the many other things in life.

Support Children With Cancer

Good intentions can only go so far, so I hope this year’s efforts will help make up for the past couple of years. This year, let’s aim to raise S$10,000 for Children’s Cancer Foundation. Tap here to donate any amount that feels right to you. The campaign is hosted on giving.sg and I’ve already made my donation!

Children’s Cancer Foundation

Children’s Cancer Foundation (CCF) is a Social Service Agency with a mission to improve the quality of life of children with cancer and their families impacted by childhood cancer through enhancing their emotional, social, and medical well-being.

Founded in 1992, CCF provides children with cancer and their families the much needed support in their battle against the life threatening illness. Over the years, CCF has helped more than 3,800 children and their families at different stages of the illness and recovery.

Getting tax relief and card rewards for our charitable giving enables us to give more than we are able or willing to. For instance, if you were willing to give S$1,000 at first and now get S$200 worth of tax relief and/or card rewards, you can always choose to further donate that S$200 if you wish to.

Thanks for helping!

Thanks for donating whatever you can, and even if you aren’t able to do so this year, there’d be other chances down the road. Special thanks also to Milelion who has provided inspiration and encouragement to start my own fundraiser. Check out his fundraiser too if that cause is more relevant to you.
