CapitaLand Hope Foundation, established in 2005 as the philanthropic arm of the CapitaLand Group, directs its giving toward education, health and wellbeing for children, youth and seniors in the markets where the property developer operates. Its best known initiative, the Hope School programme, funds the construction of schools for underserved communities across Asia.
CapitaLand says the foundation has supported more than 560,000 children, youth and seniors in total. The Hope School programme has funded the construction of schools across China, Vietnam and India, with new builds continuing to be announced, including in cities such as Pune and Bangalore.
Alongside school construction, the foundation runs the CapitaLand Kids Programme, branded CapitaKids, giving individual underprivileged children ongoing financial support so family circumstances don’t interrupt their access to education. CapitaLand has also added a Community Resilience Initiative aimed at nonprofits working in education, skills development and youth mental wellbeing across Asia.
