Since 2012, the 'Regional Day of Service (RDS)’ has been an annual event for employees in our Asia Pacific offices to engage in a diverse range of local community projects that align with Chubb's philanthropic support and initiatives.
Chubb employees across 14 countries and territories, including Singapore, participate in community projects to increase educational opportunities for underprivileged children.
In support of Beyond Social Services (Beyond), the Chubb team in Singapore organised a 3-part programme titled ‘Going Beyond with Chubb’ to raise funds, distribute food and essentials and conduct financial literacy workshops for underprivileged families and children. Beyond is a charity dedicated to helping children and youths from less privileged backgrounds break away from the poverty cycle.
