由来
  • 英语“Cultural Matching Fund”的意译。
  • 2013年十一月，文化、社区及青年部设立这项捐献配对基金，于2014年开放给艺术和文化遗产领域里的注册慈善机构申请。
  • 慈善机构筹集的捐款可在这项计划下获得政府一元对一元的配对款额。
  • 文化捐献配对基金旨在鼓励公众对新加坡艺术和文化遗产领域的捐助，从而创造一个更加可持续发展的艺术与文化生态体系，并让更多新加坡人参与其中。文化捐献配对基金将为符合资格的机构所筹得的来自个人、基金会和企业的现金捐款进行等额匹配。受捐机构可将这笔资金用于多个用途，包括能力建设，支持机构的长期可持续发展，以及推动整个文化领域的蓬勃发展。
  • 文化捐献配对基金在2013年一开始的预算是两亿元，到目前已获得五亿元来资助本地的艺术和文化遗产领域。

ETYMOLOGY
  • The Mandarin term “文化捐献配对基金” is a paraphrase of the English term “Cultural Matching Fund”.
  • In November 2013, MCCY set up a matching fund for donations, open for application in 2014 to registered charities in the arts and heritage sectors.
  • Under this scheme, donations raised by charities can receive a dollar-fordollar matching grant from the Government.
  • The Cultural Matching Fund aims to encourage giving to our arts and heritage sector. This will create a more sustainable arts and heritage scene, and one in which more people in Singapore have a stake. The CMF will match monetary donations received by the eligible organisations, from individuals, foundations and corporations. The CMF doubles the value of every cash donation for the receiving organisation, which can be put to various uses, including developing capabilities for the long-term sustainability of the organisation and the cultural sector as a whole.
  • Started with a budget of S$200 million in 2013, the CMF has to date received S$500 million to support our local arts and heritage sector.

例句
政府在2013年11月公布总额2亿元的文化捐献配对基金后，单是来自文化艺术领域的申请至今已达1亿元，显示私人领域越来越重视发展本地文化艺术。（《联合早报》, 15/11/2015）
SAMPLE SENTENCE
Since the Government announced the Cultural Matching Fund, worth a total of S$200 million, in November 2013, applications from the arts and heritage sector alone have reached S$100 million. This shows that the private sector is increasingly involved in the development of the local arts and heritage sector. (Lianhe Zaobao, 15/11/2015)
