I.Volunteer

What we do:

i.Volunteer aims to expose first-time volunteers to become more in touch with the community. i.Volunteer is in its 7th year now and have reached out to more than 20 different organisations, bringing joy to Children, Elderly, the Intellectually Disabled as well as the Physically Disabled among our population. Many volunteers have stepped into i.Volunteer as an individual with little understanding and interest in giving back but left with the heart to serve and have hence gone on to participate in many other volunteer projects.

In the span of a day, volunteers get to interact with their beneficiaries closely, giving them the chance to not only forge a new friendship but also the chance to learn the stories of these beneficiaries. With the unwavering support and funding from Office of Student Affairs (OSA), our beneficiaries and volunteers have had the opportunity to engage in many fun-filled activities and outings to local tourist spots.

Frequency:

Once a year (approximately 4 months preparation for a 1 Day of Service, collaboration with OSA) - maybe want to add in how many times a week for that 4 months

A senior's review:

i.Volunteer is a one day volunteering event where we focus on educating our volunteers and also letting out volunteers have a first hand experience in interacting with the beneficiaries. Not only do we want our volunteers to give back to the society, but also to learn something new about themselves and the society😊 As a committee member of i.Volunteer, you get to have an interesting and impactful Summer experience exploring around the Singapore volunteering environment and creating forging new bonds with the people around you! RCY is a very close knitted family and everyone is always welcomed to join in the family🥰
