ABOUT US
Founded in 2011, Empact is a leading social enterprise with a mission to build the capacity of social organisations (referred to as non-profit organisations and social enterprises) in Singapore and the region. Our aim for our capacity building efforts is to empower these social organisations to be empowered for greater impact.
Through our cross-sector collaboration with sector developers, grantmakers, corporates and volunteers, we bridge the capacity gap of the social sector by channelling talents, skills and resources to co-create innovative solutions to address the various needs of social organisations.
To date, Empact has impacted and empowered more than 1,000 social organisations in the region, with a contribution of savings amounting up to $7 million worth of professional services that have been rendered pro bono for the social sector.
In 2019, Empact was selected as a finalist for the President’s Challenge Social Enterprise of the Year Award. This is the highest accolade for social enterprises in Singapore by the President of Singapore.
