GLOBALFOUNDRIES first supported CCF in 2006, when the
company was known as Chartered Semiconductor. Employees
helpedout annually, either by volunteering to shave their heads
or by contributing to the cause through donations.
The HfH 2017 satellite event was held at our organisation for
the third consecutive year. This helped to bring employees
together towitness the head-shaving. This year, we saw a total
of 63 participants, comprising eight female shavees and 55
male shavees.
We are delighted to be one of the top six HfH satellite partners
again this year and this is made possible with the donations
contributed by employees, friends, families and business
associates.
With the satellite event, it helps to create childhood cancer
awareness and support our corporate social responsibility
initiative. We will continue to support this worthy cause, and
from all of us at GLOBALFOUNDRIES, we would like to tell
children with cancer that “You are not alone – we are rallying
behind to support you”.

BHP–
$87,020.57
BHP has a long and proud history of giving back to local
communitieswherewework and live in around the globe. Our
inaugural HfH satellite event was held at BHP in 2014 and
this year marked our second onsite event. In the gap years,
individual employees organised and joined the main HfH
event at VivoCity.
Supporting CCF stands out for us as one of our largest and
most engaging events in Singapore. Since 2014, we have
added CCF as one of our signature beneficiaries for the BHP
Singapore Charity Committee (SCC). Given SCC’s mission to
make ameaningful contribution to Singapore’s community, we
feel that it closely links to and complements theCCF’smission
to improve the quality of life of children and families impacted
by cancer inSingapore.
The whole HfH experience really illustrates how warm and
generous people can be. We see the best in our people during
the lead up to, and especially during the satellite event. We
have had employees signed up as shavees alongside family
members aswell.
It is both humbling and an honour to be ranked as one of the
top six satellite partners. It highlights the generosity of our
employees aswell as reinforces the importance our employees
placed on supporting thework andmission of CCF.

Our team’s partnership with HfH began during our IDA days
in 2016, and continued even as we transitioned to become
GovTech. Our support for HfH 2017 continued to be strong and
in fact, we raisedmoremoney than before!
HfH has a special place in our hearts because it is really
important to give hope to children with cancer, and support
them inwhatever wayswe can as an organisation.
HfH gave us the opportunity to do good for the community
as a GovTech team, by demonstrating our solidarity with the
children.We are heartened and grateful that our humble efforts
and the support of fellowGovTechies have helpedGovTech to
become one of theTop 6HfH satellite partners.
We hope this will encourage others to support this cause with
us leading by example. We have always enjoyed working with
CCF, and look forward to continuing our support for children
with cancer.
