About The CERT :

The CERT Singapore (Community Emergency Response Team ) is an organised group of specially trained volunteers (First Responders) to provide basic first-aid support, assistance and restore safety during an emergency/crisis in the community. The team is formed by the neighbourhood committees, grassroots leaders and residents living in the vicinity.

Community Goals : Resilience and Steadfast!💪💙

Personally, I've always believe in giving back to the society and to contribute my humble support. 

Volunteers are important and much needed in all constituencies & departments in the country to empower strong support and resources for our community. 

 

In my journey as a grassroots leader for community service, I have learned so much from my seniors and many opportunities to meet amazing people in the networks over the years...It's been a rewarding learning experience that elevates my knowledge, leadership and interpersonal skills etc..Most importantly, it brings a sense of gratification and fulfillment that money can't buy! :)

 

I take this opportunity to express my appreciation and recognition for every contribution, time & efforts and a warm shout-out to the CERT teams and the volunteers for all their hard work to keep the people safe and building resilient communities' for decades! 

 

Happy 20th Anniversary CERT! Keep up the good work...and together we can embrace community strength and resilience for our nation. Cheers to many happy years to come! ❤️🇸🇬

Look Mom...I Got An Award! 🏆

I've always believe in giving back to the society as what my mom has taught me since I was little...I find fulfillment and a sense of purpose for my contributions to the community.

I started community service at YEC (AMK) in my late teens and from a member of the YEC to RN committee. It's been a compelling journey with the (GRC) Grassroots Organizations over the years...

 

I am pleased to receive the Good Service Award at the Grassroots Appreciation Awards Ceremony recently... It was a honorable moment to be standing on stage to receive this award in person, from the Advisor (MP) and taking pictures together.

                        

Well, it's been a really long time since I received an award and I remember the last time I won a trophy was during a Talentime competition back in high school.

Though this isn't the Grammy or our local Star Awards, lol..however, it is still a valuable award of recognition and honor. It's got my name and the MP signature on it. (Wow..how cool!) It definitely feels good to be recognized and appreciated for the years of hard work and commitments. The crystal trophy looks pretty cute with a thumb up and this thing is heavy!😄 (*Censored for content security and confidentiality*)

Personally, I have great admiration and respect for all volunteers in the community work, they are the true givers who empowered the beauty and generosity of humanity. With the support and dedication of the volunteers, it provides a resourceful network and efficient support systems for our local communities.

Everyone can be a volunteer, as long as you have a heart of giving and the passion to serve the community, you are an asset to the country! 😊

Growing up from a humble and less privileged family, I can empathize the challenges and the struggles when you don't have a lot and I have witnessed many vulnerable families and elderly in the society who needs help and assistance. Therefore, every source of support matters and it is never too little.

As a work at home mom with 2 young children and a busy schedule... I barely have much free time, but I strive to be productive and manage my time wisely. I do my best to contribute as much as I can, as I would rather do something meaningful for the society than doing something else, but that's just me! 😉

Dinner Is Ready! Good Times & Great Food..:) 

As you know I'm a foodie... Eating is a pleasure and I love taking random food photos to share with my readers. I love the Nonya Laksa, Chicken Satays and Peking Duck Rolls. So yummy and satisfying! It was a fruitful day to receive an award and enjoying great food at the award ceremony.

 

          

      

             

A Proud Moment...

My kids are so happy for me, "Welldone Mommy, we are so proud of you!" Awww, my heart melts when my little ones praised me. My family celebrated my sweet achievement the next day...

As a mother, I would encourage my kids to give back to the society when they grow up. Kindness is a virtue and it's priceless! No one has ever become poor by giving. To offer help and support makes a difference in life that brings warmth and comfort in humanity.

                

Servicing the community on social events, Emcee hosting and teaching music (Ukulele) has developed my leadership quality, interpersonal skills and I get to explore new interests and potential.

Being a Grassroots Leader with the role of the Asst.Treasurer in the RN Committee, I gain new skills and knowledge from my seniors. I have the opportunities to meet people from all walks of life and I enjoy interacting with the MPs, other grassroots members, residents, parents, students on social events, seminars, campaigns and celebrations.

To me, such experience are much rewarding and fulfilling than monetary rewards.

            

This award is a great reminder that hard work and efforts are appreciated and valued.

My perceptive of life is living with passions and purposes! This belief motivates me to chase my dreams, to keep elevating and to fully embrace myself!

I look forward to achieve more awards in the years to come, to fill up my display shelf, hopefully! (haha!)

Last but not least...I would like to thank my family for their support & understanding and to all the amazing mentors who guided & inspired me in every aspects of life...

As a true blue Singaporean, I will contribute my greatest support in my best abilities to serve our community and beyond.

With great honor and gratitude, I am truly thankful for this remarkable award! 🏆🥰👍
