National Day has always been one of our favourite times of the year. It's when we come together to celebrate everything that makes Singapore feel like home — from our vibrant neighbourhoods and local businesses to the people who have helped build this city into what it is today.
This year, we wanted to celebrate a little differently.
Instead of simply encouraging everyone to use their
SG Culture Pass credits, we asked ourselves:
What if every local experience could become an opportunity to give back?Throughout August, every eligible
SG Culture Pass booking made on Klook won't just create a memorable day out for you — it'll also unlock the same local experience for a migrant worker through our partnership with
ItsRainingRaincoats. It's our way of saying thank you to the people who have helped shape Singapore, while encouraging everyone to rediscover the culture and community that make our home so special.
Why We Started This Initiative
When we think about National Day, we naturally think about celebrating Singapore's culture, heritage, and local businesses. But we also wanted to celebrate the people behind our nation.
Many migrant workers spend years helping to build the homes we live in, the MRT lines we travel on, and the skyline we admire every day. Yet for many of them, opportunities to experience Singapore beyond work are few and far between.
We wanted to change that — even in a small way.
Together with ItsRainingRaincoats, we're gifting local experiences to migrant workers with a matching experience for every eligible booking made using SG Culture Pass credits. Giving them the chance to explore Singapore's heritage, participate in hands-on workshops, and create memories in the city they've contributed so much to.
How You Can Join Us
The best part? Getting involved is incredibly simple:
Book a selected SG Culture Pass activity on Klook with your SG Culture Pass credits
A migrant worker gets a sponsored slot for the same activity
No additional donation. No extra steps. Just enjoy your day out knowing you've helped someone else experience Singapore too.
Experiences That Give Back
We've specially curated a selection of SG Culture Pass experiences that celebrate Singapore's culture, creativity, and local businesses.
From traditional workshops like Chinese seal engraving and paper cutting to heritage experiences, local tea appreciation sessions, iconic attractions, and uniquely Singaporean food experiences, every booking helps support local operators while giving someone else the chance to experience Singapore in a new way.
