Local Impact: Supporting Communities and Businesses
While the financial relief is welcome, the CDC Voucher Scheme is about more than just direct aid. It’s designed to boost local commerce, particularly in heartland neighborhoods, which thrive on steady community patronage.
Small business owners and hawkers have noticed a rise in customer activity, with many attributing it to voucher usage. The scheme plays a key role in helping these enterprises remain viable amidst ongoing economic challenges and inflation pressures.
The $300 CDC vouchers in 2025 represent more than just short-term financial support. They reflect Singapore’s proactive approach to community upliftment and economic stability.
