NUS BINGO Standing Beside The Salvation Army 2008

March 15th, 2008

No Borders – No Boundaries.

Join us on an ‘Unforgettable Volunteer Journey’

Together we can make a difference. Help us to help the needy.

salvation-army.jpgLet’s take a brisk step with NUS BINGO, stand shoulder to shoulder, heart to heart with deprived and underprivileged people at The Salvation Army.

In collaboration with The Salvation Army, NUS BINGO is extending an invitation to all socially responsible and passionate volunteers to come forward and show their heartfelt support to homeless children and abandoned elderly.

As we all know children are innocent, trustful & full of hope and their childhood should be joyful and loving. But for many children the reality of childhood altogether presents a different picture. Many children still have limited opportunities for basic necessities of life. Many impoverished children want to make their own identity but can’t succeed due to lack of financial and most importantly emotional backing.

It’s time to realize your potential for social welfare; don’t let them sacrifice their dreams. Give them your warm support; help them with Academic Mentoring, Training & Service Work and Administrative Support. It will be a spiritually rewarding experience and a meaningful way to dedicate your time to elderly-care services, youth services and children & family services.

Under this project, you are offered the flexibility to choose either one-off activity or semester long volunteering.

Volunteers will be rewarded with substantial number of CCA points (Subject to the length of service) along with the Appreciation Certificates acknowledging their social welfare work.

Don’t hesitate to grab this opportunity and sign up as a volunteer now!

And if you have any further queries please feel free to contact us.
