The Foundation will continue to sponsor the reading corners
and increase the number of schools we sponsor.
In FY2011, the Foundation set up a total of 17 reading corners
– 5 in Klang Valley and 12 in Sabah.
The Foundation will continue its cause to improve the English
Language proficiency amongst Tamil school children. In FY2011,
the Foundation will work with child specialists to develop an English
Enhancement Programme for primary school children, to train trainers
to run this programme and to measure its effectiveness.
The modules for Standard 2 and 3 students were developed in FY2011.
A total of 200 students from 5 schools were enrolled in this
programme.
The Foundation will be looking at raising more funds
for education in FY2011.
No fund-raising activities were held by the Foundation in FY2011
to specifically raise funds for this purpose. However, some of the
donations from the public were channelled towards the setting up
of reading corners.
The Foundation will continue to award the scholarships
to deserving students.
The Foundation is currently supporting 31 scholars.
No new scholarships were awarded in FY2011 as we are in the midst
of reviewing the scholarship scheme to ensure that
it meets its objectives.
GAB employees are encouraged and invited to participate
in GAB Foundation activities.
We are looking at making “The Big Day Out” an annual event.
Close to 600 staff and 100 business partners participated
in the Big Day Out 2011.
