Why Volunteer

Be a PA Grassroots Volunteer

PA grassroots volunteers are like you and I - people who want to make a difference in the community and contribute to the lives of the people around us. A PA volunteer brings people together through encouraging community involvement, raising awareness about community issues, explaining government policies and gathering feedback, as well as helping those in need.

An important role played by PA volunteers is to build strong community ties within Singapore's multi-racial community. You may offer your services depending on your interest. There is a wide variety of programmes you can organise, ranging from educational and enrichment courses, parties, outings and tours, arts performances to sports and adventure programmes. Through volunteering residents of all races, ages, and social background are brought together in promotion of social cohesion, racial harmony and national resilience.

When you join us as a volunteer, you not only contribute to bridging communities in Singapore but also become part of a strong network of friends and neighbours who help each other in times of need, and who enrich the lives of others.

Volunteer, Play Your Part!

Whether you are 15 or 50 years old, you can make a difference in your community. The PA network of grassroots organisations offers varied volunteering opportunities to suit your interests and strengths.
