undefinedExtracurricular Activities
Volunteer, Singapore Council of Women's Organisations, Singapore, I have been an active volunteer with the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations (SCWO) for many years. During this time, I have lent my support to various initiatives, contributing to fundraising efforts and actively participating in events that aim to uplift and empower women.
Currently, my focus lies in supporting the Star Shelter, a sanctuary for survivors of domestic abuse. In my role as a volunteer, I have taken on the responsibility of a childcare volunteer, providing care and companionship to the young ones seeking refuge in the shelter. This hands-on involvement allows me to make a direct and positive impact on the lives of those navigating through challenging circumstances.
