S$16 Million

Millennium Hotels and Resorts (MHR) was recently at the live television broadcast of Uniting Hearts 2023 Charity TV Show at The Theatre at Mediacorp to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Singapore Community Chest (ComChest).

The event raised a grand total of S$16,715,758 that will go towards supporting more than 200 critical social service programmes that benefit children with special needs and youth-at-risk, adults with disabilities, persons with mental health conditions and families and seniors in need of support.

Guest-of-Honour Singapore President Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, his wife Jane Ittogi, and Minister of State for Social and Family Development and Home Affairs Ms Sun Xueling were among over 1,200 audience at The Theatre at Mediacorp, which also comprised representatives from corporate partners and social service users.

MHR was one of the earliest partners to join ComChest’s Change for Charity initiative in February 2023 with the participation of all six of its hotels and 18 restaurants in Singapore. Customers can donate at room and dining purchases, or through conversion of rewards points via My Millennium and À La Carte Rewards. MHR also donates S$10 per day for every room that does not require changing of bed linens, and SGD$1 for each diner at its buffet restaurants. The ongoing initiative ends on 31 December this year.

MHR was also selected to represent ComChest’s corporate partners in the “Trees of Hope” project which was a part of the 40th Anniversary Charity TV Show.

Employees from all six of its hotels in Singapore – Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel, Orchard Hotel, Copthorne King’s Hotel, M Hotel, M Social Singapore, and Studio M Singapore – came together to colour leaves and flowers to decorate the tree. The final tree was unveiled to the public during finale of the live show.
