SAMH Wins Charity Transparency Award 2018
The Singapore Association of Mental Health (SAMH) is honoured to win the coveted Charity Transparency Award 2018.
The award was presented by the Charity Council to SAMH, in recognition of the Association’s exemplary transparency and disclosure practices, at the annual Charity Transparency and Governance Awards held on Thursday, 29 November 2018 at Gardens by the Bay.
Inaugurated in 2016 by the Charity Council, the Charity Transparency Awards (CTA) recognises charities’ continual efforts to achieve excellent disclosure practices and adopt the highest standards of transparency as recommended by the Charity Transparency Framework (CTF). The CTF is closely aligned to the Code of Governance for Charities and Institutions of a Public Character (IPCs).
Charities are rigorously assessed based on nine key areas for disclosure for the Charity Transparency Awards :
- Board and executive management
- Strategic direction and programme management
- Human resource management
- Management of conflict of interest
- Financial management and internal controls
- Conduct of fundraising activities
- Auditor’s report
- Timeliness of disclosure
- Other commendable areas
Hugely inspired by its win of the Charity Transparency Award 2018, SAMH endeavours to continue its efforts to uphold good transparency and disclosure practices, seeing to it that information is communicated to all stakeholders in a transparent and timely manner.
