3. Topping up "1968 Alumni Scholarship"
In view of the fact that many classes had set up their own alumni scholarships to contribute to our alma mater, more than a dozen enthusiastic alumni of our class also initiated the establishment of the "1968 Alumni Scholarship" in 2012. At that time, more than $100,000 was raised, and an amount of $10,000 was awarded each year since then. Now that the scholarship has been operating for years, the fund will soon be exhausted. To commemorate the Golden Jubilee Anniversary of our graduation, we appeal for your donations to the scholarship to show our gratitude to the alma mater and to benefit College students.
