Originally joining us for a short stint, Fitrya went above and beyond, so much so that her internship was extended. And we couldn’t have been happier to keep her on board.
From designing IG reels to curating heartfelt beneficiary stories, she brought fresh ideas and steady hands to our e-Fundraising & Partnerships team.
She tackled content creation, campaign data, and admin like a pro (even when creative blocks hit or last-minute requests came flying in)!
What helped her thrive?
🗣️ Learning to speak up when things felt overwhelming
💪🏼 Resilience through fast-paced challenges
📈 Drawing inspo from TikTok trends and past SRC gems
She found her rhythm, her voice, and her place in the team, all while keeping five cats in check!
Thank you for staying on and shining with us, Fitrya! 🌟
From day one, Faith was involved in our fundraising and events work, from Grateful Hearts Day to Wings of Art, she supported everything from planning to execution with energy and heart.
She helped coordinate volunteers, handled logistics, and even led a large-scale briefing, all while engaging donors and forming friendships with her fellow interns.
Her key takeaways?
🧠 Keep an open mind! Every experience is a chance to learn.
🗣️ Communication can make or break a moment.
💝 Relationships matter! They’re the heart of fundraising.
Thank you for being such a vital part of the team, Faith! 🌟
From May to August 2025, Nabilah brought her infectious energy and creative spark to the Blood Donor Programme (Marketing & Partnerships) team, where she dabbled in everything from liaising with vendors and designing collaterals, to running campaigns and delivering sharings.
She sharpened her skills in content creation, event coordination, and public speaking, all while caring for her many cats at home!
And yes, that is her donating blood in the photo. She doesn't just talk the talk... she bleeds for the cause (literally)!
Her internship has deepened her interest in working with NGOs, and showed her how communications can create real, meaningful impact in society.
Go Nabilah! ❤️
She plays the guitar and is totally unfazed by insects!
From March to July 2025, Fatin interned with the Singapore Red Cross Academy as a Business Development & Social Media Intern, bringing creative flair, calm vibes, and a can-do attitude.
She designed brochures, helped run events like Otto C.A.R.E. and the SRC Golf Event, packed props and goodies, and created Instagram content with clarity and purpose.
One standout moment? Taking part in her very first large-scale formal event (the SRC Golf Event) where she got to interact with guests and work closely with the team. A little nervous at first, but it turned out to be fun, meaningful, and full of laughs.
Through it all, Fatin learned to think on her feet, roll with last-minute changes, and design with both impact and intention.
We wish her the best!
