    News Release No. 07/17 Embargoed till 27 Aug, 9am ITE Celebrates 25th Anniversary with Community ITE opens its doors and gives back to community at ITE Fiesta 2017 In celebration of ITE’s 25th Anniversary, 2,500 households in the Ang Mo Kio Group Representation Constituency (GRC) and Sengkang West Single Member Constituency (SMC) will each get a bag of groceries worth $25, purchased with donations from ITE staff, alumni and the seven Citizens' Consultative Committees within Ang Mo Kio GRC and Sengkang SMC. This is the first initiative of its kind that involves the entire ITE Community – staff, students, alumni and partners – to raise funds for residents in the neighbouring community. On Sunday 27 Aug 2017, Dr Koh Poh Koon, Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Trade & Industry & Ministry of National Development will flag off the Grocery Drive at ITE Fiesta 2017 at ITE Headquarters & ITE College Central. A total of 600 ITE students will deliver bags of groceries to various community centres on foot or by bus. Other Grassroots Advisors from Ang Mo Kio GRC – Mr Ang Hin Kee, Mr Gan Thiam Poh and Mr Darryl David – will also be attending the event. The Grocery Drive is one of the many interesting activities to be held during ITE Fiesta 2017. And this would make this year’s edition of the ‘open house’ extra special and memorable. All for a Good Cause Balestier Khalsa FC will be playing a Charity Football Match with the ITE Staff team led by ex-national player, S. Subramani. For every goal scored, Balestier Khalsa FC will donate $1,000 to Beyond Social Services, a charity dedicated to helping the less privileged children and youths.
