Celebrating 40 Years of the Suzy Doll Donation Box in Singapore

Remember Suzy? The iconic Suzy Doll donation box represents a girl with Cerebral Palsy, a lifelong, non-curable condition affecting a person’s posture and mobility.

She belongs to CPAS, a specialist social service agency offering early intervention, special education, sheltered employment therapy and day activity services for individuals with cerebral palsy or multiple disabilities.

For 40 years, the Suzy Doll donation boxes were a familiar sight in supermarkets, fast food chains, and retail locations across the island. However, with the shift to cashless giving, the number of donation boxes has dwindled to fewer than 20, and donations through these boxes have significantly decreased. In response, CPAS has expanded its efforts online and through event-based campaigns like “Spare Your Change For Suzy,” encouraging individuals and corporations to support Suzy’s mission to fund essential programmes.

To mark Suzy’s 40th anniversary, CPAS is launching a special edition of the “Spare Your Change For Suzy” campaign. Donors contributing or raising $40 or more will receive a bronze commemorative coin featuring Suzy, with limited silver and gold versions available for donations of $500 and $1,000, respectively.

Your donation will directly support over 800 children and adults with cerebral palsy or multiple disabilities in Singapore

Thank you for your generosity!
