Faculty & Staff Giving
Since 2015, the generous collective giving from SIT colleagues towards the Faculty & Staff Giving initiative have made possible for our own young SITizens to explore and make the most of their learning opportunities at SIT through various student-centric fundings.
As the new Academic Year (AY) 2024/25 begins, we appeal for your continued support to help our current and incoming SITizens pursue their aspiration with fewer financial hindrances. Our collective giving is a testament of our commitment to both the future of our students and the University.
Our hearts will take our SITizens further forward!
About Our Student-centric Fundings
SIT Bursary
The Faculty & Staff Giving initiative has garnered the support of over 340 staff donors since its launch in 2015, making possible more than 215 SIT Bursaries.
As one of the most accessible financial aid instruments at SIT, the SIT Bursary (valued at $3,000 each) is open to financially disadvantaged students to help make education more accessible to our students. Click here to find out more about SIT Bursary.
The SIT Bursary will continue to support SIT’s Forward SITizen Initiative (FSI), which aims to make possible full tuition-fee support for the most financially needy group of undergraduate students at SIT. Click here to find out more about the Forward SITizen Initiative (FSI).
How Your Gift Helps
Many of our SIT students come from households with a monthly PCI of no more than $1,000 and works part-time to support themselves and their family’s household expenses. The SIT bursary will help create equal opportunities for deserving students in financial need, enabling them to pursue their goals and transform their lives. A gift of $150 each from 20 colleagues will make possible one SIT Bursary!
AdventureLearn
AdventureLEARN is a holistic student development platform launched in 2019 that aims to provide students with the strategies and resources they need to learn more effectively.
Through insightful feedback and progress tracking, personalised resource recommendations, and on-demand micro-lessons, students get to know themselves better and are empowered to become better learners — all while building their virtual island empire through this platform.

How Your Gift Helps
The app development team is aiming to raise $30,000 each year for AdventureLEARN – a goal that can be reached if just 100 SIT employees were to each donate $25 monthly, or $300 annually.
FAQ
-
Why should I give?
Participating in the SIT Faculty & Staff Campaign is a personal decision and our reasons for giving are as diverse as we are. By supporting the Faculty & Staff Giving initiative, we inspire external foundations, corporations and major donors to also support SIT students.
Whether you choose to give to SIT Bursary or AdventureLEARN development, your gift will help our students realise their potential regardless of financial situation and provide the learning environment they need to become better learners.

What are some of the benefits of giving?
Revenue contributors in Singapore will receive a 2.5 times tax deduction for gifts ($10 and above) made in calendar years 2022-2026.
-
How much should I give?
You can decide the size of your gift and no gift is too small. It is your participation that matters most.
