When I blogged about making a donation to NUS' university wide bursary program, a reader asked me, "What about NTU?"
As I make regular donations to NUS and I tell people about it when I have a chance, that was not the first time I was asked that question.
Well, honestly, I have more affinity towards NUS because I spent four years there. However, I do understand that there are needy students in NTU too.
So, in September, I decided to make a donation to NTU's bursary program to help needy Singaporean students there as well.
This is taken from NTU's website:
"The NTU, MOE, Donated and CDC/CCC University Bursary is open to Singaporean students." Source: NTU.
Some readers might remember a rather disturbing episode that happened on my FB wall when I encouraged donations to NUS' university wide bursary program.
By sharing the above statement from NTU, I have taken out the guesswork as to the beneficiaries of the program.
If we have the ability to be so, we should really consider being charitable and helping those in need.
Although there are exceptions, I do believe that most Singaporeans are charitable people.
There are many ways to make a donation to NTU. See options here.
There is also an option for making a donation online using a credit card: here.

Don't be shy to make a small donation as even $10 would go some distance to helping the needy.
In this instance, we would also be making an altruistic investment in Singapore's future.
