SFCS Continence Care Fund for Needy Seniors

Growing older should not mean going without the essentials that help us feel comfortable, clean and cared for. 💙

Yet for seniors facing financial hardship, continence supplies can be another expense they struggle to afford.

Through the SFCS Continence Care Fund for Needy Seniors, we want to help ease that burden—so that seniors in need can face each day with greater comfort and dignity.

Our goal is to raise $50,000, and we need your help.

Would you consider making a donation today? Whatever you can give, your kindness can help provide essential continence supplies and remind a senior that they have not been forgotten.

💙 Give with care:

SCFS’s first editorial!

Dear friends of SFCS, Welcome to SCFS’s first editorial! This will be the first in a regular (monthly) series of editorials where we talk about issues central to the theme of “Restoring Dignity to Incontinence Sufferers”. In Singapore, 10-40% of the population is estimated to suffer from some form of urinary incontinence, while about 4.7% suffers from faecal incontinence. These are not uncommon conditions.

The condition remains highly misunderstood, and many sufferers are reluctant to come out to speak about their experiences dealing with ...
