Hey peeps, this is really interesting and I believe that as people who are in healthcare line, all the more we should gather ourselves and lend a helping hand.
I'm not sure if you guys remember that I've asked for volunteers for the World Vision Exhibition for HIV/AIDS which was held in Monash Universitiy sometime ago, but they are having it again and this time it's in our very own DREAM CENTER!! It's gonna be held from 5th of July (this is the volunteers training day) until 13th of July. As far as I know, there'll be one more training on 28th of June but volunteers are required to come for one only. Looking at our exam schedule, I think most of us will go for the 5th of July instead.
Below is an attachment I received regarding the programme and I really hope that we all can volunteer as a whole cg. I will bring a copy of the conference schedule and volunteer form to cg this friday so meanwhile you guys take time to think about it (actually no need lah, it's right after exam and what better way to wind down then to serve the community??!!)
Dear Friends
World Vision Malaysia is continuing its interactive HIV/ Aids exhibition “One Life Revolution” in Malaysia at Dream Centre from 8 to 13 July 2008. This exhibition allows participants to walk in the shoes of children who endured extraordinary hardship due to HIV / Aids and trafficking.
HIV/Aids is on the rise in Malaysia. It is taking its toll not just among intravenous drug users, but women and children as well. We need to raise the awareness of parents and youths in order to combat this together. ** (See statistics from UNDP below)
HOW CAN I HELP?
BE A VOLUNTEER
We need at least 15 volunteers for every 5 hour slot to enable OLR to run smoothly. You can either rally a group and volunteer together or volunteer as an individual by filling in the volunteer form and emailing it to World Vision at janna_chang@wvi.org
You will also need to attend one of the volunteer trainings on the 28 June or 5 July from 9 am to 12 noon at Dream Centre. Please indicate which date you prefer on the volunteer form.
BRING A BAND
While the visitors are waiting to go into the exhibition, we want to share with them a message of hope and love through music and songs. We hope to be able to get a band to play for every of the slots we are open, to play twice during that time for a period of 40 mins each. Bands need to bring their own musical instruments and amps. We will supply the drums. Practice will be the evening before your slot. You will be permitted to bring your albums for sale and we encourage you to donate those proceeds to a World Vision cause. Those interested, please fill in your details in the OLR Band Form and email it to sophy.lim@dumc.com.my and we will get back to you.
SPREAD THE WORD
Tell others about OLR. Share the learning. Impact and save lives. Your action today can help many from today onwards. HIV/Aids not only destroy the lives of the victims. It destroys families and makes children orphans.
Thank you for your partnership! Together we can reduce the impact of HIV/Aids in the future and make Malaysia a better and safer place for the next generation.
