The event was graced by Singapore\u2019s President Halima Yacob and funds raised were channelled to support 92 charities under the President\u2019s Challenge as well as 18 charities partnered by Keppel Club.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, PSA also contributed S$10,000 towards the Jalan Kayu Charity Golf event which sought to raise funds for the needy, including those financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>Continuing its CSR focus in creative and performing arts, PSA provided financial support to the Singapore Chinese Orchestra as well as budding artists.<\/p>\n<p>Cognizant of the fact that good governance will impact lives and businesses, PSA contributed S$20,000 towards the Institute of Public Policy and its Singapore Perspectives (SP) conference which was held in January 2022. The annual SP event seeks to engage Singaporeans in a lively debate about public policy challenges the country faces. Besides the financial sponsorship, PSA\u2019s Group CEO Tan Chong Meng also participated in a forum discussion on the topic \u201cCity as Connected Space\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, heeding a call to action by Temasek Foundation, PSA took a significant step forward in sustainability efforts with a US$100,000 (S$136,000) sponsorship of two global community initiatives. The first project involves the restoration of mangroves under the M40 cities network &#8211; a global network of cities with close proximity to existing mangrove reserves, to facilitate and enhance collective action through knowledge sharing, financing and acceleration of climate action. The second initiative supports a pilot programme on circular economy intervention, focusing on waste management to accelerate the blue and green economy in cities.<\/p>\n<p>As we continue to give back to local communities where PSA has a presence, we also make a conscious effort to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of local unions. PSA donated S$75,000 to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Singapore Port Workers Union (SPWU), in appreciation of the union\u2019s close partnership with staff and management over the decades, which has helped to enable the Port of Singapore\u2019s status today as the world\u2019s largest container transhipment hub.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Giving Back to Our Communities At PSA, we are committed to serving the communities in which we operate.
