What is the Graduating Class of 2022 Campaign About?
It is an opportunity for the graduating students of 2022 to give back to your Alma Mater, and specifically to your fellow junior BITSians. We request each of the graduating student to donate any amount that you deem fit to the BITS Graduating Class 2022 Fund, from your PS-2 stipend or your salary (Could be your first salary). It is completely voluntary to donate towards the Fund.
What would the Fund be used for?
The fund will be used for student activities and clubs on the campus. The idea is to facilitate and support the student creativity and curiosity, and in a small way, be able to help non-curriculum related activities.
Who would allocate the funds and how?
The funds will be allocated to the competing student clubs and societies by a committee comprising of a student union representative, student alumni relations cell representative and the Associate Dean of Alumni Relations.
The funds will be allocated based on a very simple form detailing the need, benefit and usage of the funds. The alumni relation website will have clear details of application procedure.
How can I make a contribution?
The contribution can be made in multiple ways – through NEFT to Alumni Account, or online payment methods through Payment Gateway on BITS website. A receipt acknowledging your contributions will be emailed to you within 3 business days of receipt of your payment.
Currently, we want you to make a pledge that you would want to contribute to the fund from your PS-2 stipend or your salary.
What are the benefits of making the contribution?
The benefits of making the contribution are as follows:
- Help your fellow students fulfil their creative endeavours and vision
- Listing of names of all contributing members in the annual report and the website
- 80 G certificate for claiming Tax Benefits
When will the Campaign End?
The campaign is on until December 31st, 2022.
Why are we Launching this fund?
- Support fellow students fulfil their dreams, when you can!
