Sing Yin Secondary School Education Foundation Limited (“SYSSEF”) was founded in 2009, upon an old boy’s generous and hefty donation as the seed money.
SYSSEF is registered with the Government as a non-profit making organisation, with an object to raise, administer and dispose of funds/ assets with a view to contributing to the educational mission and growth of Sing Yin Secondary School. SYSSEF is now applying to the Government for a tax exemption status in respect of donors.
SYSSEF seeks to partner with the school, the sponsoring body, parents, alumni, etc for the betterment of Sing Yin, especially in the advent of campus re-location.
The Council, equivalent to the Board of Directors, is responsible for control and management of all assets of SYSSEF. There are currently eight Council Members serving a three-year term up to 2011, as follows:
