Our Projects
Lim Hoon Foundation’s initiatives at making change.
LHF-SMU Scholarship
Singapore Management University
Since 2009, LHF partnered with SMU to support undergraduate students across multiple schools including Business, Accountancy, Economics, Social Sciences, and Computing.
Building on LHF 2017 joint donation with ARA of S$1 million, LHF established the JLFO-Lim Hoon Foundation Scholarship in 2022 with S$3 million, matched by a S$1 million government grant. Recipients receive S$10,000 annually, bond-free.
Community Education Awards at CCCs
Boon Lay and Punggol West CCC
Since 2013, LHF partnered with Community Clubs across Singapore to launch the Lim Hoon Foundation Community Education Awards (LHF-CEA).
The awards support and encourage holistic achievement among students from challenging backgrounds, empowering those who often fall through the cracks of traditional support systems.
LHF currently partners with Boon Lay and Punggol West Community Clubs, supporting over a thousand students in the last five years.
Tao Nan Alumni Association Awards
Lim Hoon's legacy lives on at Tao Nan School, where he once taught and instilled his love for education in his children. Across three generations, the family has contributed over 150 years of combined service as educators to the school.

LHF-NTU Scholarship
NTU
From 2010 to 2014, LHF partnered with NTU’s Nanyang Business School to provide non-bonded bursaries to deserving undergraduate students.
The program awarded S$5,000 annually to academically strong students facing financial need, renewable for up to four years based on the student’s academic performance.
DAS 360° Pact
Dyslexia Association of Singapore
In 2021, we partnered with DAS to launch the 360° Pact, supporting students with dyslexia and co-occurring learning difficulties in Institutes of Higher Learning.
Over three years (2021-2024), our S$280,100 contribution funded comprehensive support programs for 100 students from low-income families and local research examining dyslexia prevalence rates in Singapore and effective support strategies for post-secondary students. The program enhances traditional support structures, helping students succeed both academically and beyond.
Pool Grant
CPAS
In 2009, LHF sponsored the maintenance of the hydrotherapy pool at the Cerebral Palsy Centre, a specialized school for children with cerebral palsy. Cerebral Palsy Syndrome is considered one of the most expensive developmental disability after autism to manage over the course of a person's lifetime.
Hydrotherapy is essential for these students with CP, enabling movements impossible on land and forming a vital part of their education and development.
