Leadership with a Heart

Course is conducted by the National Volunteer & Philanthropy Centre (NVPC)

The SG Cares “Leadership with a Heart” Program is designed based on the concept of Servant Leadership. It aims to instil in our youths and students a heartbeat for the people they are to lead, and the society at large.

The 12 hours program consists of the mainly 3 phases; Soft skills training (classroom-based), shadowing and leading two activities.

Benefits for attending the Program:

• Students get to gain a different perspective of life and society given the interactions with the beneficiaries and Volunteer Host Organisations (VHOs).

• Students get to have real-life experiences in leading groups with followers that may be of higher seniority both in age and job positions.

• Students get to receive a NVPC certificate for the 12-hours training program.

* date is either on the 16 or 18 June (Wed / Fri)

NUS C.A.N Project

Hi Leos, the NUS C.A.N Project is back!

True to its title, it is a special project that urges a Collection in Aid of the Needy. Started in 2004, this is the 7th year the club will be undertaking the project.

Event Date: 17th July 2010

The project will collect canned goods from the public, generating publicity for the event through drives organised in HDB estates. The public will also be encouraged to buy and donate canned food through another drive held in the participating supermarket. These canned food will then be given to beneficiaries, like the elderly and people from the lower income group, who need assistance in fulfilling their basic necessity needs. In addition, Project C.A.N. VII hopes to continue to create and maintain these social connections within our society.

The Leo committee will be going! And We hope that all Leos will join us too!
