SINGAPORE - The Tote Board has said it is doubling its funding contributions for its Enhanced Fund-Raising Programme for a year.

Digital fund-raising platforms have to comply with the Commissioner of Charities' code of practice for charitable online fund-raising appeals and/or be conducted on corporate websites of non-profit organisations with charitable status to qualify for the EFR.

For example, for a project which raises a total of $140,000 on eligible digital platforms, the Tote Board will match $56,000 of the funds raised. Mr Fong Yong Kian, Tote Board chief executive, said:"It's been heartening to see Singaporeans from all walks of life rallying to support the community as the nation battles the Covid-19 pandemic."
