Ngee Ann Kongsi 
 

The Ngee Ann Kongsi is a foundation which is actively involved in educational, cultural and welfare activities. Founded in 1845 by Chinese immigrants of the Teochew dialect group, the  Ngee Ann Kongsi was formally incorporated in Singapore under the Ordinance Act in 1933. The Kongsi has grown from a community bound by a common heritage and genuine concern for the welfare of  its members to a foundation that now serves the community regardless of race, religion or social status.
