About PA Cares @ President's Challenge

The People’s Association (PA) has been supporting the President’s Challenge since its inception in 2000, rallying the community to give back and support those in need.

In 2026, PA Cares @ President’s Challenge continues this commitment, with PA aiming to raise $250,000 in support of President’s Challenge. Anchored on the arts, this year’s initiative brings the community together to contribute through Time, Talent and Treasure — by volunteering, sharing their talents, or making a donation.

Through these collective efforts, PA hopes to foster a more caring and inclusive community, while creating meaningful opportunities for residents and volunteers to make a difference together.

A group of individuals stand on a stage with a banner reading "PA Cares @ President’s Challenge 2025" featuring various logos.

The President’s Challenge was launched in 2000 by then-President Mr S R Nathan, to rally Singaporeans in building a more caring and cohesive society, and to support communities in need.

In 2025, the President’s Challenge was refreshed on achieving more sustained social impact by supporting every aspiration, recognising every contribution, and inspiring others to lift those around them.

The PA Cares @ President's Challenge campaign this year features an accessible arts activity at Bedok Town Square on 26 September 2026, including interactive arts try-outs for members of the public to experience, and an Avatar Creation activity, where participants can create a personalised avatar and share pledge messages that symbolise unity and togetherness!

Through the event, PA rallies residents, corporate and community partners to raise awareness of inclusion in accessible arts and encourage meaningful community connections.
