During the odd occasions when I help out as a volunteer with the Com Chest, some friends have asked what I do. I tell them I am a "SHARE ambassador" whose main role is to help spread awareness of the SHARE programme through briefings to businesses and government agencies.
Just like this one where I am giving a briefing to Metro staff on how their monthly donations go towards helping 300,000 beneficiaries in Singapore. Earlier, Comm Chest staff had conducted a mini training workshop for us volunteers. That helped a lot but it took me a while to feel confident to agree to go solo. Strangely enough, once I started speaking, I no longer felt nervous. The message itself was powerful enough. I was merely a conduit and I hope I did the message justice.
