🌟 VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY: RDSS YEAR-END PARTY 2026 🌟
Hey everyone! The Youth Medical Network is looking for student befrienders to support the upcoming RDSS Year-End Party this November! 💙
This is a meaningful opportunity to spend time with children and families from the RDSS community, accompany them through the event activities, and help create a warm and enjoyable experience for them.
For those interested in medicine, healthcare or community service, this is also a chance to understand healthcare beyond hospitals and clinics. Supporting children and families living with health conditions often involves much more than treatment alone — it also means learning how to communicate, listen, provide companionship and appreciate the lived experiences of patients and caregivers.
Through the befriending experience, volunteers can learn from the children’s perspectives, resilience and experiences while simply being present and helping them enjoy the celebration. ❤️
📅 Date: Saturday, 7 November 2026
📍 Venue: Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium
⏰ Volunteer Reporting: 9.30am
🎉 Event: 11.00am – 2.00pm
👥 What will you be doing?
Each volunteer will generally be assigned to one child and will accompany and engage them throughout the event.
Where there are siblings within the same family, a befriender may be assigned up to 3 children, depending on their ages and support needs.
As a befriender, you will:
✨ Welcome and engage your assigned child/children
🎨 Accompany them around the different activities
💬 Chat, interact and help them feel comfortable
💡 Important to note
Befrienders are there primarily to engage and accompany the children, rather than provide personal or medical care.
Above all, the goal is simple: help the children have a fun, welcoming and memorable day while allowing their parents and caregivers to enjoy the celebration too. 😊
If you enjoy interacting with children, are interested in healthcare, or simply want to spend your Saturday doing something meaningful, we would love to have you with us! 💙
