Intern, Youth Impact & Networks

The Singapore International Foundation (SIF) is a non-profit organisation that connects communities worldwide and convenes global expertise to drive change for a better world. Established in 1991, we foster collaboration among communities to exchange ideas, skills, resources, and experiences to create positive social impact.

Powered by the strong commitment and dedication of our volunteers, our programmes drive collective action through public, private, and philanthropic partnerships to address global challenges.
