It's 9/11 again.
I look set to join the Befriender's programme. As NKF CEO puts it, LOVE is spelt T.I.M.E
It's 9/11 again.Headed to the HQ of National Kidney Foundation (NKF) after my long day of school. Situated at Kim Keat Road and a walking distance away from St Micheal Bus Interchange, the head office is really hard to locate.
I was the first volunteer to arrive. The reception area had a cafe booth and was comfortable. It looked better than some hotel lobbies.
The Volunteer Management staff greeted me very warmly. There were 8 of us that attended the Volunteer Orientation. During the talk, we learnt about the symptoms of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), the inconveniences of a ESRD patient and how we could contribute to help them.

Following the talk, we were led to the 3rd floor where we had a peek on how the dialysis centre looked like. The Tay Choon Hye-NKF Dialysis Centre was elaborately designed and equipped with aquarium tanks. All but one of the NKF dialysis centres are sponsored by organisations and individuals.
Before I left, I could somewhat feel that volunteers are much needed to help out.
