COVID-19 Solidarity Fund has been created to support families most affected by the economic impact of the crisis

International French School in Singapore has at its heart the interests of each student and family within its diverse global community. During this particular uncertain time, the school is acutely aware of the difficulties the COVID-19 health crisis has caused many families and the IFS community as a whole. As such, the school recently announced the launch of the IFS COVID-19 solidarity fund initiative.

Created out of concern for, and in solidarity with, families in difficulty, the fund’s objective is to support families most affected economically by the COVID-19 health crisis in 2020 and beyond. This fund is financed by donations from the IFS community, namely families and corporate partners. It is available from the 3rd term of the current academic year and throughout the 2020/2021 academic year.

Received by the IFS community with an overwhelmingly positive response, we wish to thank our corporate partners Air Liquide, BNP Paribas, Bolloré, Compass Group, Crédit Agricole, Danone, Decathlon, Engie, Essilor, Hermès, Michelin, Murex, Rémy Cointreau, Richemont, Société Générale, Total, Touax, UBAF and Vinci Energies, who have all committed so far to the fund through their donations. We would also like to pay special recognition to the individual families who have also chosen to donate to the fund. Your support and generosity are deeply felt and much appreciated.

The IFS Executive Committee, Management and all IFS staff remain fully committed to keeping the vision and mission of the school alive. IFS will continue to offer premium quality education to French and non-French families at a competitive rate while ensuring the long-term sustainability of the school.
