Mission Statement

The TSAO Foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for older people by alleviating the hardships of ageing through its community health services; promoting successful ageing; and pioneering new approaches to ageing and eldercare throughout Singapore and the region.

It also aims to be a catalyst for constructive change by addressing ageing and eldercare issues at policy level.

The Foundation actively pursues its mission by focusing its work on these three pillars of eldercare: Service, Education and Collaboration.
