The Graduates

We are proud of the 1,091 students that have completed their studies since 1965 with assistance from our Association. We have seen graduates in many diverse fields which range from Arts to Engineering. The earning potential of these graduates is at least R400 million per annum. This is more than what the Association has paid out since its inception. These graduates have: become financially independent, helped uplift their families and younger siblings and paid their South African taxes and also contribute Zakaat to various organisations, including the Memon Association. They have become dignified and confident leaders and help enhance the community. We would really appreciate it if graduates can volunteer to assist us in any way.

 

Call To Graduates

We urge all Memon graduates to support the organization with their time and donations.
Your efforts and donations will ensure that the next 50 years will inspire and enrich the lives of many more students.

We would really appreciate it if graduates can volunteer to assist us in any way.
