Bursaries and Scholarships

It’s truly disheartening to see how inflation impacts Singapore’s economy and its people, especially when it comes to the education of our children. Sadly, it’s the students from underprivileged backgrounds who are bearing the brunt of this situation. They are the ones who need our support and assistance the most, and it’s our responsibility to help them in any way we can.

We strongly believe that every child deserves a fair chance at receiving a quality education, no matter their family circumstances. As an organization, we are dedicated to supporting disadvantaged students and families in our community. We are committed to ensuring that all students have an equal opportunity to learn and thrive, and we work tirelessly every day to make that a reality. We strongly believe that every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of their family background. We’re committed to helping support disadvantaged students and families in our communities.

We offer a limited number of bursaries and scholarships to Singaporean students whose families are experiencing the adverse effects of inflation. Our efforts can help alleviate some of these families’ financial burdens and allow their children to receive the education they deserve. To ensure that they will get the most out of their education, awardees will receive year-long tuition support for classes attended at any of our Elucidation Learning Centres in 2024.
