Tote Board Scholarship For Non-Profit Organisations
In 2008, the Tote Board launched the Tote Board Overseas Scholarship with the aim of uplifting the capability and capacity of the non-profit sector, with a focus on improving the leadership, management and entrepreneurial capabilities amongst leaders of Non-Profit Organisations (NPOs).
The Scholarship targets leaders of NPOs and sends successful candidates to internationally renowned universities including Harvard, Stanford, INSEAD, Duke and Columbia. Candidates can typically look forward to being exposed to the latest management ideas, concepts, emerging trends and challenges and new tools to address challenges.
It is expected that upon their return, candidates will in turn, propagate the knowledge and best practices acquired, thus elevating the overall level of professionalism in the sector. Since the inauguration of the scholarship programme, the Board has already sent 42 scholars to top universities including Harvard and Stanford. More details on our scholars can be found here.
