“Singapore Buddhist Federation (SBF) was founded in 1949 as the apex body of all Buddhist monasteries, institutions and all Buddhists in Singapore — both monastic and lay communities.
Besides promoting Buddhism for spiritual purification and guiding sentient beings, the SBF actively promotes welfare, education, culture, racial and religious harmony, and of late, enhancement of charity governance through a series of training sessions, talks and consultancy services.“
