We’re the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth—also known as MCCY.
We seek to inspire Singaporeans through the arts and sports, engage the youth, strengthen community bonds, and promote giving.
We're here to build a confident and resilient Singapore, and what that means is a fulfilled and engaged people living in a cohesive and caring society.
MCCY's all about people - and that means everyone. We're here to create a gracious and harmonious society and inspire everyone to feel a greater sense of belonging and work towards a common future.
After all, we’re in this together, for the long haul. That means building strong bonds and close relationships.
At the end of the day, it’s really about making Singapore the best home for everyone.
To enable the charity sector to flourish, we adopt a robust yet balanced regulatory approach and work with various partners to help charities strengthen their capabilities and governance. We encourage co-regulation and a culture of transparency and accountability. This enables a safe giving environment where everyone can do a part in creating a caring society.
GO TO CHARITIESWe may be many and different, but what we share in common is stronger than our differences. And this is what our society is made of – shared values and experiences that build bonds that hold us together as one common people, regardless of race or religion.
GO TO COMMUNITYThrough facilitating the development of the co-operatives (co-ops) sector, the Registry of Co-operative Societies' work furthers the Ministry's mission of building social capital and making Singapore home through the promotion of active citizenship. With inputs from the various stakeholders, the Registry updates policies and rules periodically so as to build a robust regulatory framework for the proper governance and sound management of the co-ops. This way, Singaporeans and residents will have confidence in the co-op structure and continue to participate in the co-op movement.
GO TO CO-OPSMutual Benefit Organisations (MBOs) are membership-based entities which provide relief to their members. There are currently 75 MBOs in Singapore.
GO TO MBOsWhen it comes to the sports, we imagine fun and passion combined, ready to ignite. Whether you’re a sports participant or a supporter, we’re here to spark that fire in your belly.
