We Belong 2022

We Belong was a resounding success, bringing together the OneNTU community for community work and fundraising. It generated over 3,300 hours of volunteer activity and raised more than S$1.1 million from over 4,000 donors, for various University causes. Held in the first quarter of 2022, the campaign encouraged the NTU family to give back to the community through volunteer service and fundraising.

"The NTU We Belong campaign has been all about participation and togetherness," said Ms Lien Siaou-Sze, Vice President for University Advancement. "The NTU community has shown its pride in the University, and helped to advance the remarkable work being done by our students, alumni, faculty, and staff in Singapore and beyond."

The campaign’s final signature event, NTU Giving Day, was held on 23 March, which marked the culmination of the inaugural We Belong campaign organised as we celebrate NTU’s 30^th anniversary. The 12-hour hybrid event brought together the entire OneNTU community to celebrate the impact of giving and support critical causes of the University: the NTU Bursary Fund, NTU Priorities Fund, NTU Sustainability Fund and School Advancement Funds.

Prior to that, the NTU Service Week took place from 22 to 29 January, followed by the Best Foot Forward fundraising virtual run from 18 February to 31 March.
