Singapore Book Council turns 55 this year and we need your help to bring Singapore literature (Sing Lit) to more communities! Sing Lit gives us the opportunity to read diverse stories about home, while also providing a window into the lives of often-silent minority communities. These stories and perspectives foster empathy and understanding in our multicultural, multilingual society. As we open a new chapter in our journey, we rely on your generous support to help us continue advocating for Sing Lit, nurturing writers and cultivating a love for books and reading. Thank you for your generous contribution!
