NUS TLS Trust Fund
NUS Tamil Language Society’s (NUSTLS)
attempt in reaching out to the community is
further manifested in its efforts to provide
interest-free loans through the NUSTLS
Trust Fund to needy Indian undergraduates
who are currently pursuing degree courses in
the National University of Singapore. Since
its initiation in 1999, NUSTLS Trust Fund,
administered by Singapore Indian Education
Trust (SIET), has supported many needy
Indian undergraduates.
The interest-free loan of $2000 has surely made
a difference t o those undergraduates’ tertiary
education. It is notable that replenishing the
trust fund is highly facilitated through the
proceeds that the society receives from its
biennial production, Sangae Muzhangu.
With the cost of education rising over the
years, NUS Tamil Language Society hopes
to alleviate these costs, to a small extent, by
providing these interest-free loans to needy
Indian undergraduates so that they may
experience a smoother journey in their varsity
experience. This initiative allows the society
to hold steadfast its objective of reaching out
to all borders of the community. NUS Tamil
Language Society sincerely hopes to continue
this small gesture in the years to come in
order to help as many Indian undergraduates
as possible.
