Portraits of our donors
Keith Chua, Mrs Lee Choon Guan Fund
Keith Chua has a long family legacy centred around philanthropy. It started with his great-grandmother Mrs Lee Choon Guan. She made a name for herself, fighting for causes that championed education, women and girls. Today, he continues the legacy she started and hopes to pass it on.
Trina Liang-Lin and Edmund Lin, Lin Foundation
Trina Liang-Lin and Edmund Lin benefitted from the kindness of others when they were growing up. Now, they want to give back to others who need a helping hand in life. To celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary, the couple decided to start a foundation for causes they are passionate about.
Govind Bommi, Andal Cares Fund
Govind Bommi did not come from a well-to-do family that didn’t have much, but his mother always helped anyone in need. Through his life, he has done his best to emulate her generous and compassionate ways, even as he set up home in a new community. For him, giving back where he lives is important.
Yeo Suan Wei, CampVision ‘Live Your Dreams’ Fund
Growing up, Yeo Suan Wei often felt like she was never good enough. As a successful working professional, she co-founded CampVision – a programme that empowers marginalised youths to realise their dreams through an adventure of equals.
