About the Organization

At DBS Foundation, we are committed to supporting vulnerable segments so that those with the fewest resources are not denied the opportunity to improve their circumstances and face the future with confidence.

We believe that when their essential needs are cared for – food on the table, a warm bed, and a healthy mind and body – they can look forward to what lies ahead. When they are equipped with financial and digital literacy skills, they can access opportunities to get ahead.

In addition, we champion purpose-driven enterprises and invest in those that are dedicated to helping the less fortunate.

Through catalytic philanthropy, and in partnership with those who care, we can drive change, create impact, and build a better world.

About the Grant

When purpose-driven businesses grow, the impact they create travels beyond their company, beyond a single bottom line to uplift lives of those who need it most.

Since 2014, DBS Foundation has provided more than SGD 17 million in grant funding to 140 social enterprises and SMEs to scale their business models and deepen their impact. We’re immensely proud of this impact community and what they’ve gone on to achieve.

Our flagship DBS Foundation Grant, has nurtured a strong network of Businesses for Impact across Asia.

From 2024, the grant will be focused on scaling innovative social enterprises (SEs) and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that help create a more inclusive world and bring enduring change to vulnerable communities in Asia.
