“We have been a partner with The Star for more than two decades in providing scholarships to deserving Malaysian students. In line with our founder, Tan Sri Jeffrey Cheah’s mission and commitment to give back to society and the belief that education could lift one out of poverty, the Sunway Education Group through the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation (JCF) has been championing sustainable education since the late 1980s. Tan Sri has pledged to disburse RM1bil worth of scholarships in his lifetime and to date the JCF has awarded RM330mil and another RM70mil (the highest amount awarded in one ceremony so far) will be given out by the end of this year.
The Sunway Education Group is also committed to the 17 United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) particularly SDG No 4, which is to provide quality education.
