Charity Hongbao 2008 is an annual fundraising project that is targeted at engaging students to take a moment amidst the Chinese New Year festivities to think about the less fortunate and be moved to offer one of their red packets to SPD. Students from kindergarten to JC are encouraged to participate through their schools. Funds raised from the students will be channeled towards programmes and services that benefit physically disabled children and youth.
Alert: Beware of Fraudulent Payment Requests Made in SPD’s Name
SPD has been alerted to cases involving job scams where scammers have used SPD’s name to instruct individuals to transfer money.
Please remain vigilant. SPD does not authorise individuals to request or collect money on our behalf through such means. If you receive a suspicious request or are unsure whether it is genuine, please verify it directly with SPD by calling our general line at 6579 0700. Alternatively, you can call the ScamShield Hotline at 1799 before taking any action.
If you believe you may have fallen victim to a scam, please contact your bank immediately and make a police report.
SPD takes such matters seriously and we constantly review the necessary safeguards to protect the public and our supporters. Please be assured that legitimate donations and payments made through SPD’s official website and authorised platforms remain unaffected.
