CURL 2009

Challenge ur Limits (CurL) is a special project brought to you by Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Welfare Services Club (WSC). The Welfare Services Club is an associate member of National Council of Social Services (NCSS) with over 500 NTU student volunteers actively involved in diverse areas of community work. Besides providing weekly regular services to 11 welfare organisations, the Club also undertake special projects such as CurL, to promote unconventional means of volunteerism. WSC was the recipient of the Singapore Youth Award 2006 (Medal of Commendation) as well as the President’s Social Service Award 2008 (informal group category) for sustained efforts in community service. For the upcoming project, our beneficiaries and volunteers will be involved in decorating and making kites. By giving them opportunity to decorate the kites, we allow the beneficiaries to express their creativity and challenge their mental limits as making and decorating kites require a high level of patience. At the same time, flying a kite requires a certain level of co-ordination skills, thus challenging the physical limits of the beneficiaries, especially the intellectually disabled. The proposed location of the event is
4th July Marina Barrage
