Please describe the nature of the issue/problem that you are attempting to address through this Community Service Project (CSP).starringSMU15 is a community service project that aims to build community involvement
amongst youth in SMU and raise awareness about our beneficiaries such as Swami Home
and Kits4Kids which target both the Children and Elderly. Many of the elderly are either
disabled or abandoned and struggle to make ends meet. Many children who are mentally
challenged or disadvantaged are lacking in interaction and face social stigma. These social
issues are a prime target of starringSMU15 where we hope to address them through our 3
key events: starringCAMP, starringGIVESBACK and starringCARWASH.
What do you expect to gain/learn from through your involvement in this Community Service Project (CSP)?I expect to gain insight and awareness about the difficulties that disabled people face doing
everyday tasks that we take for granted. I also expect to gain empathy and understanding
towards mentally challenged children who face the stigma from society that they are
uncontrollable and incurable. Through beneficiary visits where we will conduct home
maintenance, pack food for the underprivileged and interact with the elderly and children,
I believe that I will not only be able to able to learn the spirit of giving back but also to
colour lives by impacting the lives of others around me.
