BE ONE OF THE 10,000 NAMES TO BE RECOGNISED ON THE DONORS’
WALL
Set to open in 2008, the Shaw Foundation Alumni
House will be a vibrant confluence of networks and partnerships to engage and
encourage all alumni to be part of NUS’ global aspirations. This iconic building
will be a beacon to bring all alumni together.
Managed by the NUS
Alumni Office, the Alumni House has comprehensive facilities such as a
300-seater auditorium, a business centre, a career centre, seminar facilities,
courtyards and lounges.
Be Recognised
All our Alumni Groups are specially invited to be a
part of the Shaw Foundation Alumni House Donors’ Wall project. With a minimum
donation of S$100, alumni' names will be acknowledged on the Donors’ Wall,
which will take pride of place within the building. Participating alumni’
names can be acknowledged individually or under the Alumni Group
name. We strongly encourage a minimum of 10 members' donation for a
group plaque. Funds raised will go towards alumni-cultivation and educational
programmes. All donations are eligible for double-tax deduction.
To
date, there are 20 Alumni Groups, Overseas Alumni Chapters, as well as
faculties, classes who have already contributed to the Donors’ Wall
project.
We will appreciate it if you could disseminate this
information to your alumni group members and encourage them to participate so
that your Alumni Group name can be put up on the Donors' Wall. Attached is
a draft email that you can use to send out to your members and
also the Alumni House brochure (with enclosed donation form) is
attached for your use. [Ed: Information can be found, and donations made, online, too]
We
hope to have all our Alumni Groups represented on the Donors’
Wall at the Alumni House. If you require hard copy brochures for distribution,
pls feel free to let us know. Please support this project and do your part to
contribute to our alma mater.
I look forward to your
participation by Dec 2007 and I thank you in advance for your
participation!
