Description

The Tan Chin Tuan Foundation (TCTF) was established on 10 April 1976 by the late Tan Sri (Dr) Tan Chin Tuan, a distinguished banker and philanthropist. The foundation was created to share the rewards of his successful career by supporting those in need and uplifting the less fortunate. Mr Tan served as Chairman of OCBC Bank from 1966 to 1983, playing a pivotal role in its formation through strategic mergers. Today, the foundation continues to support viable, sustainable, and well-managed causes with measurable social impact. Mr Tan was also the paternal uncle of former Singapore President Tony Tan.
