In celebrating 70 fruitful years of steady growth, Lam Soon announced a donation of S$3.5 million to Community Chest and another S$3.5 million to support other causes.

Our donation aims to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the vulnerable in Singapore’s population. Through partnering with Community Chest, Lam Soon donated $3.5 million to eight social agencies that champion the needs of children and youths, as well as the elderly and ageing population.

Lam Soon is honoured to have Mr Masagos Zulkifli, Minister of Social and Family Development of Singapore, gracing the cheque presentation ceremony to Community Chest.

At the same time, Lam Soon seeks to encourage sustainability and wellness by supporting the activities of urban farming carried out by the social enterprise, Edible Garden City – a champion of garden builds that designs, builds and maintains food gardens in Singapore.

Lam Soon and Edible Garden City will be working with schools and facilities such as CHIJ Kellock and APEX Harmony Lodge to instill the concept of sustainability in the young and empower the elderly through improved holistic wellness.
