Assalamualaikum warahmahtullahiwabarakaatuh,

Salam Sejahtera, Salam UTM Sanjungan Bangsa, Salam Malaysia Madani.

First and foremost, Endowmen UTM warmly welcomes all new UTM students for Semester I, Session 2023/2024. Congratulations! For choosing UTM as the place to further your studies.

On behalf of Endowmen UTM, I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to everyone, especially UTM staff, students, and alumni, who have generously donated to Endowmen UTM, whether through cash contributions or salary deductions. Our appreciation also goes to individuals and companies outside of UTM who have donated to the Endowmen UTM. Generally, all contributions received are utilised to assist UTM students, either through scholarships or daily essentials support.

Endowmen UTM remains committed to increasing the existing funds to assist students in need of financial aid, particularly considering that approximately 50% of UTM students come from low-income families (B40). Based on the funds collected until December 2023, the Endowment has provided scholarships to 771 students across various study programmes, faculties, schools, and ethnicities, as well as financial assistance to students facing financial difficulties. Additionally, financial support has been extended to initiatives like the “Almari Kasih Sayang” (Kindness Closet).

UTM has received over RM7.0 million in donations from UTM alumni, contributing to the cumulative total of more than RM146 million in Endowment funds. Through Endowmen UTM, RM27.2 million has been disbursed to 771 students in the form of scholarships since 2011. The funding for Endowmen UTM Scholarships depends on the annual investment returns. The more contributions received by the UTM Endowment Fund, the more UTM students can benefit. To date, 351 Endowmen UTM Scholarship recipients have successfully graduated.

The scholarships funded through UTM Endowment include:

• Merdeka UTM Scholarship: RM20,096,850
• Azman Hashim UTM Endowment Scholarship: RM1,908,000
• Al-Bukhary Endowment Scholarship: RM594,183,000
• UTM Alumni Endowment Scholarship: RM366,000
• Daing Abdul Rahman Daing Mohamad Endowment Scholarship: RM72,000
• Hitam Abdullah Endowment Scholarship: RM72,000
• Saripah Ahmad Endowment Scholarship: RM18,000
• Zainab Baba Endowment Scholarship: RM18,000

For the 2023/2024 session, 86 Endowmen UTM Scholarships were offered to outstanding students, B40 category students, and those excelling in sports, with scholarship values ranging from RM12,000 to RM9,000 annually. Endowmen UTM also channelled financial assistance to over 600 B40 students in the form of festive contributions for major national celebrations, including Hari Raya, Chinese New Year, Deepavali, Christmas, as well as suspended meals, one-off assistance, and others.

To date, more than 350 Endowmen UTM Scholarship recipients have successfully graduated with distinction. Congratulations! It is hoped that these recipients will contribute back to the UTM Merdeka Endowment Fund to assist students in dire need of financial help.

It is our hope that the culture of giving continues to flourish, with more individuals and organisations contributing to the Endowment Fund. May the contributions from our donors be blessed by Allah SWT and bring them abundant rewards.
