As the Presenting Charity Sponsor of the concert, CHF pledged to match dollar-for-dollar the proceeds raised from the concert. With a total of S$100,000 raised and CHF’s pledge, a S$200,000 donation was presented to His Excellency Dr Tony Tan Keng Yam, President of the Republic of Singapore, at the concert at The Star Theatre on 12 August.

In 2012, 10 corporate donors each bought a limited edition Because iCare – Kai Kai and Jia Jia giant pandas philatelic frame in support of PC 2012. In addition to the amount donated by the corporations, CapitaLand raised more through the sale of exclusive panda eco-bags at 29 of its participating properties. CHF donated S$10 to PC 2012 with every eco bag sold at S$20. The total amount of funds raised was S$350,000.

In 2011, in conjunction with the launch of CapitaLand Orchids, Cattleya CapitaLand and Phalaenopsis CapitaLand, 10 sets of the specially-minted blooms of the two prized hybridised orchid species were designed and sold to corporate donors to raise funds for PC 2011. CHF matched dollar-for-dollar towards the funds raised from the initiative, bringing the donation to a total of S$400,000 to benefit eight children beneficiaries under PC 2011. The Guest-of-Honour, His Excellency Dr Tony Tan Keng Yam, unveiled the two orchids and received the cheque from CHF.

In 2010, CapitaLand's donation of S$500,000 to President's Challenge, Singapore, was largely due to the charity sales of the book "Building People: Sunday Emails from a CEO Volume 2", written by Mr Liew Mun Leong.
