The Peter Lim Scholarship ceremony was held on Monday, 27^th May, to award the recipients for this scholarship. More than 400 student-athletes received a total of $1.1 million at the Singapore Olympic Foundation Peter Lim Scholarship awards ceremony held at Temasek Convention Centre. The student-athletes were greeted by the guest-of-honor, Ms. Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment and Minister-in-charge of Trade Relations and President of Singapore National Olympic Council (SNOC).

The Singapore Olympic Foundation (SOF) set up the SOF-Peter Lim Scholarship with a S$10-million donation from philanthropist and sports enthusiast, Mr. Peter Lim. The gift remains the single largest donation in Singapore from an individual towards sports development. The driving force behind this scholarship is the desire to ensure that no promising young athlete who is committed to chasing his or her sporting dreams, should be hampered by financial restraints.

The scholarship aims to (1) help young deserving athletes from financially challenged background to achieve their sporting goals, and (2) support high performing athletes under 18 years old to pursue sporting excellence in their chosen fields.
