Lives touched
We believe in seeding social capital to transform lives for a more inclusive and resilient world, so every generation prospers. Since 2003, we have been setting aside a portion of our net positive returns above our risk-adjusted cost of capital for community gifts.
These are approved by the Temasek Board before being gifted to Temasek Trust, and then disbursed to and administered by our non-profit ecosystem consisting of Temasek Foundation (TF), Temasek Life Sciences Laboratory, Stewardship Asia Centre, and Mandai Nature. The gifts include 24 programme endowments which have impacted about 2 million lives across Singapore and Asia.
