Singapore Airlines injects $30m into new foundation

The foundation will have two programmes upon launch.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) Group will inject $30m into its newly launched namesake foundation.

The group will establish the Singapore Airlines Foundation as a company limited by guarantee, funded from income earned on an endowment.

The foundation will have two programmes upon launch: the Youth Uplift Programme and the Youth Outreach Programme.

The first programme will offer financial aid to eligible students at Singapore's Institute of Tehgcbniucal Education (ITE) colleges, polytechnics, or universities.

Students accepted for the programme will also receive a three to six-month traineeship with SIA Group, courses from SIA Academy, and mentorship from the airline's employees.

Application for the programme will open in July.

Meanwhile, the Youth Outreach Programme will give upper secondary school and junior college students unique immersive experiences "to ignite a passion in the aviation industry."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
