SuperSTUDENTS! provides financial support to primary and secondary school-going children from the Centre’s low-income families for their schooling needs. The initiative comprises 3 schemes, namely Bursaries, Education Assistance Fund and Back-to-School Bundles. The bursary award recognises children from resilient families who performed well in their studies whilst coping with their families’ difficult circumstances.

The assistance fund aims to assist beneficiaries beyond Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund assistance for school-related expenses, while the Back-to-School programme supports and equips beneficiaries with schoolbags, stationeries and schooling-related materials in preparation for the new academic year.

Ms Low mingled with the invited guests during Foundation of Rotary Clubs Singapore Family Service Centre’s 20th Anniversary Celebration and Family Day 2017.
