It’s been a good 2 years (albeit a very busy, and sometimes frustrating 2 years) with Cat Welfare Society… and I have officially stepped down as its President, after being on the hot seat for a full year.

I am very glad that I stuck with the Society, thus fulfilling my “promise” to stay for the full 2 years, and also to keep it going, despite the looming threat of nearly having to close the Society down at one point in time.

But fortunately, we have found a new batch of passionate newcomers who are dedicated, driven and very keen on taking the Society to the next level. I am more than happy to pass the baton on to them, knowing that the Society will be taken to new heights with their leadership and vision.

I took on the ordinary committee member role when Dawn left (she was a huge part of the Society), thinking that I will never have to take on a heavier load… but little did I know, I was somehow propelled to the President’s position due to some major shuffle in the exco.

It has been a great learning opportunity and I have met so many capable and wonderful people during my term. I will be making good use of the invaluable experience that I have gained with managing a Non-Profit Animal Welfare Organisation, and apply the knowledge to the professional aspect of my life.

I will still be on the exco as one of its ordinary committee members, until I start school, perhaps. But a formal, and clean handover is in place
