CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY
S P Setia Foundation
The S P Setia Foundation is one of the most active charity trusts founded
by a property developer. Our charity work through the S P Setia Foundation
under the stewardship of Chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye has also endeared
us to the community.
The Foundation’s main focus is in the area of education where it sponsors
the studies of some 2,300 primary pupils across the country under the Setia
Adoption Program (SAP). The SAP allocates between RM860 to RM960
yearly for every Setia Adopted Children in primary school to sponsor their
school fees, textbooks, computer fees, school bag, tuition fees, stationery,
uniforms and canteen meals. Meanwhile, secondary school kids are given
RM1,000 yearly.
On 20 January 2008, the parents of 196 underprivileged Setia Adopted
Children beamed with pride as they cheered their children onto the stage to
receive awards for their excellent academic performance in the 2007 UPSR
examinations at the Annual SAP Excellence Awards Ceremony.
