APCL’s mission is the universalisation of quality education. As the School of Creative Learning continued to establish itself in the community as a leading innovative center for quality education, several friends and family came forward to support underprivileged and meritorious learners at the school. As a giving back initiative, endowments funds have been set up by families to perpetuate the memory of their beloved ones. The interest earned on the amount is used to provide scholarships to underprivileged and meritorious children.

The first Giving Back function was organised in 2012. Since then, every year, APCL organises ‘Giving Back’ - to distribute scholarships to the deserving children.
