Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) open data shows how charities in Singapore distribute across income-size bands based on annual receipts from financial years ending in 2013, with annual returns due within six months of each charity’s financial year end. Two CSV datasets provide annual and standard views of the distribution. Non-profit researchers examine sector concentration and regulatory compliance patterns. Receipts-based sizing reflects Charity Act reporting rather than operational budgets alone.
