A year has passed since COVID-19 stormed the world. Many have been affected by it physically and/or financially. SADeaf has too endured a torrid and challenging 2020; receiving lesser donations and a reduction in the number of donors.
Will there be a cure for COVID-19? When will life return to how it used to be? No one knows exactly what life will look like in the future.
Surging ahead with tenacity and braving the new norm, SADeaf is launching our Flag Day 2021 campaign from 1st Jan 2021 till 31st March 2021. We urge support from everyone to sustain our services for the Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing and Deafblind community and build up capabilities and resources to face uncertainties of the future.
The SADeaf 2021 Flag Day Campaign will be accepting donation via the following modes:
– Online donation via giving.sg
– Cheque, Direct bank transfer or PayNow
– Physical donation box placement
– 3rd party fundraiser

<Sustaining Singapore’s arts, culture and sports sectors through COVID-19>
Minister for Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), Grace Fu announced support measures for the arts, culture and sports sectors.
$55 million has been set aside for an Arts & Culture Resilience Package (ACRP) as part of the Resilience Budget. This budget will be used to:
– Protect livelihoods and careers in the arts, culture, and sports eco-systems
– Invest in capabilities that will position ourselves well for the post-COVID recovery.
– Digitalise these sectors to create new markets, provide new job opportunities and ensure that Singaporeans can continue to benefit from the arts, culture and sports.
What does this mean for these sectors and freelancers?
Join Minister Grace Fu this Sunday, 12 April at 9pm on her Facebook page for a Live chat. SADeaf will be providing live sign language interpretation and note-taking.
