Blood Donation Drive
Organised by the Singapore Sindhi Association
The Singapore Sindhi Association is proud to support the nation’s life-saving efforts through regular blood donation drives, held at our premises on the first Sunday of January, April, July, and October each year — a tradition we have upheld since 1983.
This noble initiative was pioneered by the late Mr. Rupchand Bhojwani and is now passionately led by Mr. Vashi Chandiramani. In partnership with the Singapore Red Cross, we remain deeply committed to humanitarian service and to ensuring a safe and steady blood supply for those in need.
We are honoured to be recognised annually as one of the major community organisations contributing to Singapore’s blood donation efforts, with our contributions consistently acknowledged and appreciated by the Ministry of Health.

Vesak Day Charity
Vesak Day is an auspicious day celebrated by Buddhist all over the world and also in Singapore to mark the Birth of Lord Buddha. SSA organises a special program on this day, along with our kind hearted donors. Their contribution is used for good cause. Our volunteers contribute time, organising day visits to charitable Homes like the Old Age, Orphanage etc. of the less privileged. Donations are made to these Homes including spending time with them. These services provide our members with an opportunity to serve those who need our love and care. Our young generation are encouraged to engage themselves, learning the true purpose of life is to serve Humanity.
