About the Donor

The Pesi B Davar Memorial Fund, established in 1997, in honour of the late Mr Davar, will support Study Awards for financially disadvantaged Singapore Citizens pursuing an undergraduate degree in Technology, Accountancy or Business at SMU.

The late Mr Pesi B Davar was a prominent member of the local Parsee community and his vision was to provide for needy members of the society.  This Study Award was set up to ensure that no students would be deprived of an education due to their financial circumstances.
