SINGAPORE : A 61-year old widow has pledged all
three of her properties to charity clinic Thong Chai Medical
Institution.
The properties are estimated to be worth S$3 million
in all, and will pass on to the institution upon her
demise.
The woman, who only wants to be known as Madam Chan,
said she had the support of her two sons regarding the
donation.
The properties are meant for the institution to generate finances,
so it can continue to provide free medical consultation for
patients.
Four decades ago, the institution also saw a similar act of
philanthropy, when it received three properties as a
donation.
