Established in 1993, Tsao Foundation raises community awareness of the needs of seniors and their family caregivers through training and education to build capacity, initiating research and study, developing innovative and duplicable care models for community-based aged care services. The Foundation also design activities to empower mature adults to master their own ageing journey over their life course in terms of self-care, growth and development. We also support senior serving groups and organisations to promote the benefits of longevity and inspire positive ageing in place. The Tsao Foundation has a long tradition of working with global agencies involved in improving the quality of lives of older persons. For instance, since 1997, the Foundation has been a member of HelpAge International, an international NGO serving disadvantaged older persons. We are also appointed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) as a Centre of Excellence and Knowledge Partner in its project- “Strengthening Developing Member Countries’ (DMC) Capacity in Elderly Care” Towards that end, the Foundation has pioneered evidence-based approach to ageing and eldercare across a range of disciplines - physical, cognitive, and emotional – which hinders their ability to safely complete activities of daily living and who live at risk in the community. Our goal is to enable them to age in place with quality of care and dignity; an enduring principle in the Foundation's work. Tsao Foundation operates two day-care centres at Tiong Bahru and Whampoa; as well as primary care, dementia care, home care and counselling services for the seniors. We accept referrals from hospitals, clinics, community agencies, volunteers and families.
