Do you know that 37% of older adults in Singapore suffer from three or more chronic diseases?
The most popular health problems are high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, joint pain, arthritis, nerve pain, and diabetes.
With the cost of healthcare rising rapidly in Singapore, seniors are struggling to pay for their healthcare needs. They have to undertake out-of-pocket spending for medical bills, withdraw their savings to cover long hospital stays, skip medications or take less than prescribed as they cannot afford medication costs.
For the elders who struggle to make ends meet, with little or no support from their families, life is just a matter of sheer endurance.

Nam Hong Welfare Service Society is a non-profit organisation which provides free TCM medical treatment, health maintenance, funeral service, and livelihood provisions for the disadvantaged and elderly.
Health – Medical Services: We started as a MOH-registered TCM clinic to provide free general TCM services to the elderly in 2001 and have since maintained a $2 registration fee only policy (no other obligatory charges for treatments and free 3 days medication) for the disadvantaged and elderly.
Well-Being – Caring Heart Program: Launched in 2014, the program was aimed to improve the well-being of elderly and disadvantaged in our community. We offer free funeral services, distribution of rations & cash handouts, daily necessities to needy seniors, and so on.

Mr. Lim, 72, is a former durian hawker who became bedridden after a car accident followed by a stroke episode. His wife, Mdm Goh, 71, takes of him every day. She has lived with poliomyelitis since young and has difficulty walking.
This year, we fulfilled their wish for a memory foam pillow and a new bedsheet to help them rest better. We also delivered rations and red packets during our home visits. Both Mr. Lim and Mdm Goh are our Afterlife beneficiaries. The costs of their funeral service will be covered under the Afterlife Care programme.









Thank you for considering a monthly donation — it’s one of the most impactful ways to support our community. Here’s how it works:
1. Monthly Confirmation Email
Each month, you will receive a notification email asking whether you'd like to donate for that month. No payment will be processed unless you confirm. This ensures you have full control — you can skip or stop anytime.
2. Always Keep Quantity at “1”
When making a monthly donation, please ensure the Quantity field is “1.”
This field refers to the number of donations you're making now, not the number of months you want to give.
Example: If you’d like to donate monthly for 10 months, simply select Quantity: 1. We will confirm your donation each month via email. If you increase the quantity to 10, you’ll be charged for 10 donations immediately.
3. Need to cancel your monthly donation?
You can cancel or update your monthly donation anytime by replying to the confirmation email.
Still have questions? Don’t hesitate to contact us at cares@namhongwelfare.sg. We’re happy to help!
