We had the pleasure of hosting our esteemed donors at the Scholarships and Awards Ceremony 2024, held last Friday on 25 October 2024. This event offered a wonderful opportunity for donors to connect personally with the talented students who have benefited from their generosity.

It was a memorable occasion, filled with new friendships and the renewal of existing connections.

We are immensely grateful to all our donors for their commitment to nurturing creative talent. In this academic year, we have disbursed 228 awards with a value of more than $1.2 million to our deserving students. As The Ngee Ann Kongsi Gold Medal recipient, Monica Tan, expressed in her heartfelt speech, your support has given our students the confidence to pursue their passions and make a lasting impact in the arts and beyond.

Thank you once again to all our donors, and huge congratulations to each awardee—you’ve truly earned it!
