WeCare Arts Fund

The WeCare Arts Fund is a funding scheme that supports collaborations between artists and Social Service Agencies (SSAs) in using the arts as a platform to engage beneficiaries within the social service sector. Through arts-based projects, the Fund allows participants to bond and make new friends, while promoting lifelong learning and a more inclusive environment for communities in need.

About WeCare Arts Fund

Launched in 2014, the WeCare Arts Fund (WCAF) is a collaboration between NAC and the People’s Association. Administered by the five Community Development Councils (CDCs) in Singapore, WCAF aims to increase arts access for beneficiaries within the social service sector.

Social service agencies can tap into this fund to work with artists to customise their interactive arts workshops to the needs and interests of their beneficiaries in performing, visual, literary or multi-disciplinary art forms.

Activities supported by the Fund

The fund supports project costs that involve artists working directly with SSAs/SHGs and their beneficiaries through the Performing, Visual, Literary and Multi-Disciplinary arts.

Who is the Fund for?

The fund is open to all SSAs/SHGs that are keen to work with artists / arts groups to bring arts to their beneficiaries. SSAs must be a member of the National Council of Social Service (NCSS). Artists may approach SSAs directly in order to submit an application for the Fund.

*With effect from January 2020, interested SSAs can submit their application online via the OurSG Grant Portal (https://oursggrants.gov.sg) for a more seamless grant application process using CorpPass.
