 From
Volunteer to Friend - RAS's Star Volunteer
Uncle Lim is
a long-time volunteer with RAS and has supported us in several of our
activities. He was recently awarded the Certificate of Appreciation for his
dedicated volunteering efforts with RAS.
I’ve learned many things
about toilet cleanliness and hygiene which I was ignorant before I joined
RAS as a volunteer. What they are doing to help Singapore achieve clean toilets
is very meaningful. I hope to see more people coming forward to volunteer
for this meaningful organization, RAS.
