Celebrate the First-Ever Chinatown Pasar Charity 2025

This May, embrace the spirit of community with Chinatown Business Association’s inaugural Pasar Charity (23 – 25 May), a purpose-driven marketplace, bringing together local charities, meaningful causes, and generous hearts.

Chinatown Pasar Charity 2025

This May, Chinatown Business Association invites locals and visitors alike to experience the power of giving back at Pasar Charity 2025, a first-of-its-kind, community driven marketplace happening from 23 to 25 May at Smith Street.

Rooted in the belief that “Singaporeans have big hearts”, Pasar Charity reimagines the traditional street market or pasar as a platform for social good – uniting charitable organisations, individuals, and the public in a shared space where generosity meets purpose.

Pasar Charity will feature booths run by local charities, social organisations and the public, offering a wide selection of pre-loved treasures, upcycled goods, and meaningful items. Whether one is decluttering with intention or shopping to support a cause, every purchase contributes to a greater mission.

This year’s participating charities represent a diverse range of causes, reflecting the heart of our local communities, such as:

Here With You – Improves lives of migrant workers in Singapore through emotional support, legal aid, and access to essential services.
Public Free Clinic – Provides Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) medical care to all in need, ensuring accessible and affordable healthcare for the community.
Presbyterian Community Services – Supports children, youth, families, elderly, persons with disabilities, and low-income households through counselling, care programs, and community initiatives.
Jamiyah Singapore – Provides shelter, care, and rehabilitation for the elderly and destitute through programmes that focus on holistic support, from healthcare, emotional well-being, to creating a safe haven for those in need.
Yong-En Care Centre – Supports low-income families and seniors through community-based services, such as daycare, counselling, and financial aid, creating a caring and inclusive community for all.
Singapore Chung Hwa Medical Institution – Provides high-quality Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) treatments to the general public, while offering subsidies for lower-income patients.

Together, these organisations form a collective voice for compassion, inclusion, and sustainable change, giving them a platform to share their mission and raise funds in a way that is interactive, transparent, and community focused.

With strong support from the public and participating charities, this event is set to become a staple on Singapore’s community calendar – marking a new chapter in Chinatown Business Association’s placemaking journey that brings together people from all walks of life through a shared spirit of compassion.
