It is also important for M3 to work closely with MMOs to deal with issues that may require a nuanced approach. For example, the Singapore Muslim Women's Association, or PPIS, provide support for Malay/Muslim women. Indeed, MMOs play a key role at the community and national level, and we are happy to have more MMOs and partners come alongside us to support our families and community.
We thank Mr Saktiandi Supaat for his suggestions on areas where volunteers can make a difference. Allow me to share some of the volunteer opportunities within M3 that suit the interests and skillsets of those who wish to contribute.
Our tertiary students can join the #amPowered programme as mentors for MTS students, or the "Cool Yah" programme at the M3@Towns.
If you are a working professional, you can contribute your knowledge and experience as mentors or speakers for M3 youth mentoring programmes, or support other professionals through MENDAKI's Professional Networks.
Those who want to contribute towards supporting children or vulnerable families can sign up as facilitators for our KMM initiative or as Project DIAN Ambassadors.
Starting this year, our corporate partners are also invited to collaborate with M3 to cultivate a culture of giving in your organisations, where interested staff can serve as volunteers at our M3@Towns as part of their work hours.
I strongly urge my fellow Members to share these volunteer opportunities with your respective constituencies. M3 will also be conducting volunteer recruitment drives throughout this year, and those who are interested can sign up via the M3 website or our socials.
(In English): A culture of contribution, driven by active citizenry underpins the spirit of M3. Everyone of us has a stake in ensuring that we continue to thrive as a Community of Success. There are many ways we can contribute in our different capacities, whether through pledging to the WMS, committing our time and effort as volunteers and mentors or even as a corporate partner.
I hope that many more of us will step forward to join this noble cause to uplift our Malay/Muslim community.
