Throughout June and July, NUS students plan and organise engagements with charity programmes under various Social Service Agencies (SSAs). They then participate in flagging, over 5,000 students from NUS travel all over Singapore on two separate days to flag for donations from the public.

Next comes the RAG part, which stands for Receive and Give (RAG). Every year, students put on colourful, vibrant performances for the community to show their gratitiude for supporting the fundraising efforts. Traditionally, the family-friendly carnival-styled event is open to the public.

Rag & Flag 2020 managed to raise a total of $134,374! Keep the tradition alive, NUS!
