NEEDS

Volunteers are welcome! Disabled members can indeed be wonderful and sincere friends and vice versa for the volunteers. Through the direct interaction with them, we are always touched by their determination and courage in facing life albeit a tough one. This often leads and influences us to have a positive mindset as well. Being a volunteer, it is indeed our responsibility to inculcate and assist the disabled group to develop a higher level of self-reliance as well as achieving their financial and physical independence. It is also hoped that disabled group can find support and comfort in volunteers whenever they are needed spiritually, I believe through sheer sincere participation by volunteers, people with disability will be able to enjoy full participation and equality in society through active cooperation and encouragement by volunteers from various spectrum of the society.
