Founder of manufacturing company donates $100,000 to ST's school pocket money fund

SINGAPORE - When he was 16, Mr Freddie Chan tried not to be disappointed when he could not join members of his secondary school outdoor activity club on a trip to Mount Kinabalu in Sabah, Malaysia.

He donated $100,000 to The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund on Thursday , presenting a cheque to the secretary of the fund, ST news editor Karamjit Kaur, at the SPH News Centre lobby. "So I hope by donating and contributing to the fund, I will be able to help all these students now who also have limited pocket money daily."

"We hope to make this a yearly thing and I'm looking forward to seeing how my contribution will help these children," he said.
