will be heading back to Thailand once again this December for our usual collaboration with .intl ! We had to pull out of our trip back in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the past few years remained in limbo as the virus remained amongst our midst. The tentative dates this year will be 16 to 24 December 2023. We are looking for healthcare workers and other passionate individuals to join us for our second medical mission of the year, and our second medical mission since the pandemic. Interested participants can sign up at https://www.giving.sg/volunteer-event?event_activity_id=89478041 :)

Here we go again!💪

Project Light is an initiative that was the brainchild of a group of passionate nurses, who decided to create a platform to bring together everyday Singaporeans and healthcare professionals to serve the needy communities by addressing primary healthcare needs, and empowering locals through preventive health education. We recognize that once-off outreaches sometimes may do more harm than good, by causing locals to develop reliance on external help. This becomes harmful when there is a sudden cut in external resources being able to reach the communities, such as what we experienced recently with the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, we aim to be able to initiate sustainable health programmes to effect positive health changes among vulnerable communities.

These 2 years, unfortunately due to the pandemic, we have been unable to proceed with our regular one to two overseas medical outreaches a year that we usually do. Thankfully with the COVID-19 pandemic coming under control, we are once again able to get back onto the horse, and slowly pick up from where we left off. We are delighted to be approached by our regular partner, LovePal, to be the medical support for an upcoming outreach to Mangatarem, Pangasinan Philippines. Our friends from LovePal have spent the past couple of months doing site visits, and identifying the areas where we can offer our help to the locals. The medical outreach is from 1st to 6th of May 2023. For the medical team, our role would be to help provide basic health screening, eye checks, and empowering the locals on managing their health.

We are looking to form a team of medical professionals (nurses/physiotherapists/occupational therapists/podiatrists & doctors) for this outreach. Anyone who is interested or has further questions can feel free to contact Eileen at projectlightsg@gmail.com, or simply fill up this recruitment form if you’re keen to join us: https://www.giving.sg/volunteer-event?event_activity_id=81853309

Happy Nurses Day|
Without nurses, Project Light would not be able to do what we do, be it helping our local migrant worker communities, or doing our overseas mission work. More often than not, doctors end up taking the limelight, however, unbeknownst to them, doctors would not be able to survive without the help of nurses!
Nurses spend the most time on the ground, interacting with patients first hand, tending to the requests of patients, and carrying out the orders from doctors. In the healthcare sector, nurses are truly indispensable. With the past few months of battle against the COVID-19 virus, we have also seen many nurses step up from their usual duties, and put themselves at higher risk, by being posted, or volunteering their services to be at the frontline of the epidemic, directly caring for positive cases. Such acts of heroism is something that we cannot deny, and something that we should all greatly appreciate, for their dedication and sacrifice.
On this Nurses’ Day, Project Light would like to wish all nurses, regardless of what sectors they may be working in, or whether they are current or retired nurses, a very Happy Nurses Day!We truly appreciate everything that you do, and life in any healthcare institution/community would be crippled without your efforts.💕
Take care and stay safe. @ Singapore

It is with a heavy heart that Project Light has to pull out from our project with RADION International this year on 23rd of February 2020 to the 2nd of March 2020. This trip with Radion to serve the community of Phetchabun, Thailand, has been a pet project of Project Light since 2015. We know that ground preparations had been made and the villagers and staff of Radion in Thailand are all anticipating our arrival. However, we were not able to fulfil the trip this year.

Our 2020 team is made up of nurses, an occupational therapist, and a doctor, from both the public and private sectors, but all on the frontline of this battle. We had been looking forward and preparing for the trip since last year but unfortunately due to the ongoing and escalating threat of the novel coronavirus, most of us in our team of 10 of healthcare professionals have been activated to be placed on standby in the event of a wider spread of the virus in our country. With all of our overseas travel leave cancelled and placed on hold indefinitely, we had no choice but to call off this trip. We know that the refund process from the airlines had been tough and futile but we are immensely grateful to all our volunteers and the understanding that you had shown us!

Over the past nearly 2 months, the novel coronavirus 2019 started from a small epicenter, and quickly rampaged internationally, with confirmed patients and death tolls rising daily. With the virus now confirmed in at least 28 countries, we hope that everyone can come together, regardless of nationality, as we battle this common enemy.

Let us remember to stay healthy, keep others around us safe, and be socially responsible - whether it is staying home if we are sick, or not joining the mass hysteria of panicked buying and hoarding which may result in resources being unfairly distributed and those who are in need of them being deprived as well.

No one “asked” for this virus, so let us not ostracize certain nationalities or races, as xenophobia will serve us no purpose in our already-strained society.

Treat everyone with kindness and respect, and may we all ride through this coming out stronger. 🌱

Project Light will like to thank all those battling on the frontline for working hard, making sacrifices so that we can all proceed with our daily lives❤️

2019 is fun-filled, joyous and memorable.
We had touched 814 lives through our overseas medical trips and local migrant workers outreach. We also ran our 1st Advance Practice Nurse led medical consult during our overseas outreach.
Thank you all volunteers who have been part of this amazing journey. Special thanks to all our partners .intl and westlite dormitory for the unwavering support!
Lastly all these would not have been possible without our kind sponsor from Lee Foundation.
Thank you and we cant wait for 2020!❤️
