PROJECT REFRESH: TRANSFORMING HOMES FOR NEEDY FAMILIES
On April 6, 2024, SSMC’s SRC and NECDC collaborated to organize “Project Refresh,” where 17 volunteers spent 6 to 8 hours transforming living conditions for underprivileged families. They decluttered and painted homes, including a low-income flat and a cancer patient’s residence. Mayor of NE District Desmond Choo praised their efforts, noting the positive impact on families and the volunteers’ insights on empathy and mental health.
