OPPORTUNITIES Since its establishment in 2012, the TTS Foundation has been working hard to raise funds that will go into enriching Tanglin students through various educational and philanthropic endeavours. Tanya Sahni, Development Manager, shares their plans for 2021-22. TTS Foundation started the academic year on an exciting note with the launch of its annual Fundraising Campaign 2021. Our goal this year is to raise SGD 450,000, which will go into spearheading a variety of programmes to enrich our students’ education. This includes driving sustainability initiatives; encouraging leadership and service activities; giving access to inspirational visitors and significantly driving both participation and excellence in our sports and arts programmes. One such example is the Deirdre Lew Service Award (for Years 10 to 13). This award is a fantastic opportunity for
58
students to give back to the community and be inspired. It is encouraging to see Tanglin students come up with their own wonderful ways of serving the community using their unique talents. Sponsoring up to SGD 500 per applicant, this award has supported the efforts of many students like Year 12’s Rhea (see p56) to carry out service-based activities, making their mark in Singapore and the wider community. This year, funds raised have a two-fold purpose, supporting exceptional educational projects for our students as well as Tanglin’s prestigious Centennial Arts Project with its very first art installation plans already in place for 2022.
