WHERE HEARTS COME TOGETHER
Celebrate Sands for Singapore’s 10th Charity Festival with us! Themed ‘Where Hearts Come Together’, this year’s Festival marks 10 years of Marina Bay Sands giving back to the community through its signature Charity Festival.
Uniting businesses, non-profits and the public to make a collective difference for society, the Festival has raised over S$35 million since 2013.
On this special 10th edition of the Festival, pop-up booth Scoops of Hope, which first debuted in 2015, will return with 10 delectable ice cream flavours over 10 days from 16 to 25 Aug at The Shoppes, Level B2 (near Bacha Coffee). All proceeds of these specially created flavours by Marina Bay Sands’ pastry team and celebrity chef restaurants Bread Street Kitchen, CUT by Wolfgang Puck, Maison Boulud and Waku Ghin will go towards Metta Café to support individuals with intellectual disabilities.
Come 23 to 25 August 2024, indulge in an array of activities at the Event Plaza. Shop for a good cause at the Giving Marketplace, recharge with gourmet treats by Marina Bay Sands’ signature restaurants, and dance to electrifying performances by homegrown powerhouses at the main stage. Don’t forget to create your own mementos at our Heartwork: Upcycling for Good booth!
Non-profit organisations, social enterprises and small businesses will be showcasing a diverse array of handcrafted works, bags and accessories, and baked goods at the Giving Marketplace. All proceeds will go directly to the participating organisations to support their programmes, amplifying their invaluable work.
Savour gourmet treats from four of Marina Bay Sands’ signature restaurants, specially priced for everyone to indulge for a good cause.
Try your hand at upcycling plastic bottle caps by transforming the waste materials into a beautiful coaster or keychain at our Heartwork: Upcycling for Good booth. All proceeds will go towards the AWWA Transitional Shelter programme which provides temporary safe housing for displaced families.
All these activities underscore 10 weeks of internal community engagement activities that Marina Bay Sands’ Team Members have been volunteering in to make a difference in our community, including a toy donation drive for children undergoing treatment for cancer, National Day celebrations for seniors residing in nursing homes, and art jamming sessions with youth, seniors and individuals with disabilities.
