Our strategic approach

Corporate philanthropy

We are committed to positive change through financial and in-kind contributions, which include donations, fund-raising, and sponsorships.

Stakeholder partnerships

We leverage our networks to connect and collaborate with like-minded industry and community partners to drive greater reach and impact.

Employee participation

We actively volunteer our time, skills, and service to create meaningful connections among colleagues while contributing to the community and building a more cohesive, engaged workforce.

Better social development

At Independent Reserve, we believe inclusivity and empowerment as essential to a thriving community. We aim to break down barriers and promote equal opportunities. This dedication not only strengthens our corporate culture but also enriches the broader community we serve.

Independent Reserve Singapore is working with Extra•Ordinary People, a local non-profit charity, dedicated to empowering individuals with special needs to lead independent and fulfilling lives. We partner them to raise awareness and support for individuals with special needs through fundraising events and volunteering initiatives.

Each year, Extra•Ordinary People requires community donations to provide team-based support for special needs individuals and their caregivers at every stage of their developmental journey, even after they turn 18. These services include integrated therapy, performing arts, and vocational training programmes.

Join us to make a difference.

Better social development

Better opportunities and empowerment

Sportsmanship is embedded in our culture. Mateship, fair play, and perseverance are the cornerstones of strong leadership and resilience, which we champion. Our support for sports isn't just about the games; it's about strengthening bonds, fostering growth within the local sports community, and supporting athletes in their pursuit of excellence and their dreams.

Professional golfer - Shannon Tan

Singapore's golfing trailblazer, Shannon Tan, embodies the spirit of Independent Reserve. At just 20, she is the first Singaporean to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympics. Her achievements are remarkable: securing a full Ladies European Tour (LET) card in December 2023, winning the Magical Kenya Ladies Open on her debut in February 2024, and achieving a top 3 finish at the Ladies Italian Open in June 2024.

Our partnership with Shannon reflects our shared commitment to supporting the growth of local golf and promoting the sport in Southeast Asia. Her perseverance and excellence align with the values we champion.
