We foresee that these donation drives will continue except for the mosque collections, due to the strict limitations imposed by COVID-19 restrictions.

COVID-19 has directed us to review how we work and engage with our key stakeholders like our donors and recipients. For example, in the first half of 2020, we have already successfully organised 2 online bursary presentations with online chats with our recipients. These were well- received by all involved. Our online presence has been reviewed and refreshed more often as they increase in importance in the “new normal”. We will continue to search for new ideas and engagement methods with our stakeholders.

To ensure that LBKM always remains relevant, we constantly need to review our products and services. This was also the subject of our most PHOTO CREDIT: recent annual LBKM retreat in 2019. One of our new initiatives in early NUS Malay Studies Society Facebook 2020 was to establish a COVID-19 fund to specifically meet the needs in some segments of the community which have been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 situation. In addition, initiatives started in 2019 like the PHOTO CREDIT: School Top Up Fund will be increased and enhanced in order to reach out Big Mouth Production Facebook to more students in need.

To achieve our vision to be a distinguished bursary institution, we will constantly review our product offering and services in its totality in order to ensure that the bursaries, scholarship and financial support that we offer will meet the needs of students in this dynamic landscape. New ways to engage recipients, donors, stakeholders and new methods of raising donations and sponsorships will have to be explored as well.

No new significant expenditures are anticipated in the near future.
