What we do
Comprised of 100 People, 100 Women and QUIZ WARS, (aka 100 Men Doing Good!), our goal is to raise the profile of as many Singaporean charities as we can whilst raising funds for the vital work they do… and connecting lots of good people along the way.
We wanted to create opportunities for people, particularly expats, to learn about charities in their community so they could support them financially or by volunteering, during their time on the little red dot.
We knew people were searching for ways to make a difference, so we rallied everyone we knew and contacted a variety of fantastic charities and the connections and fundraising began!
And so, a platform was created for charities to share their stories and ask for help, as well as a great community of engaged people with the desire to do more for others.
Thank you to all the charities and wonderful people who have supported us along the way 💚
How it works
100 people, men or women take part.
4 charities are in focus at each event.
5 minute presentations by each charity are followed by a Q&A session.
45 minutes is around the entire duration of the presentations.
100 dollar donation from every guest means $10,000 can be raised on the night.
You learn more about the vital work the charities do here in Singapore and what they need to help make a difference to the lives of vulnerable people in your community.
You’ll meet a wonderful variety of people from different industries and countries and enjoy complimentary drinks and canapés.
What is required
100 tickets available for each event and are booked on first come first served basis.
If you’d like to attend an upcoming event you can register online or with one of our team members.
You’ll receive updates on the event and the charities involved.
You can invite friends and colleagues to register too.
At the end of the night you’ll donate $100 to your favourite charity.

Brian Gillies
ChairmanA Scottish economics graduate, Brian worked as a fund manager in the City of London for a large institution which also bought very large properties such as hotels, office buildings and shopping centres. The shopping centres particularly attracted Brian’s interest and he gradually moved across to the property side, along the way re-qualifying as a chartered surveyor and shopping centre designer. This proved a very successful move as Brian discovered one of his great passions.
