BAC Education and Fugee School
Unite to Empower Refugee Students
On 22nd November, in an inspiring collaboration between BAC Education and Fugee School, a life-changing opportunity was unveiled for 20 refugee students. Through merit-based scholarships, these deserving individuals will gain access to higher education at institutions under BAC Education, including Brickfields Asia College, Reliance College, Veritas University College, University Malaysia of Computer Science and Engineering (UNIMY), and BAC College (Singapore). This partnership marks a significant step toward empowering refugees through education and opening doors to brighter futures.
This partnership embodies a shared vision between BAC Education and Fugee School - which is to transform lives through the power of education. The initiative underscores both organisations’ unwavering commitment to making quality education accessible to marginalised communities, fostering hope and building a brighter future.
Imagine being forced to leave everything behind—your home, your friends, your dreams—yet holding on to the hope for a better future. For refugee children and youth, education becomes not just a right but a lifeline. This is where Fugee School steps in.
More than just a school, Fugee is a sanctuary—a place where young minds are nurtured and dreams are reignited. It provides a safe space where students can learn, grow, and heal. With a holistic approach to education, Fugee goes beyond textbooks, equipping students with the skills, confidence, and knowledge they need to thrive in the face of unimaginable challenges.
Sarah El-Massoudi, Fugee School's Programmes Director for HiEd said, “At Fugee, we believe education is the key to unlocking endless possibilities. This partnership with BAC Education gives our students a platform to pursue their dreams and become leaders of change. Together, we are proving that education is not just a right but a bridge to opportunities.”
Aria Singham, Managing Director of Brickfields Asia College, shared
“BAC Education has always championed the belief that education transforms lives. By partnering with Fugee School, we aim to provide these students with not only access to higher education but also the tools to rewrite their narratives and inspire others to do the same.”
Both Fugee School and BAC Education are united in their goal to leverage education as a transformative force. Through this partnership, the ripple effect of empowerment extends beyond individual scholarship recipients to positively impact their communities and futures. The scholarship recipients are expected to embark on a journey of growth and discovery, taking advantage of the world-class learning environments and resources offered at BAC Education.
This initiative is a testament to the power of collaboration in creating pathways to opportunity, ensuring no one is left behind, and building a future where education is a tool for equity and empowerment.
