The North West Student Support Fund campaign culminated on a high, with youth performers putting up an amazing show at the North West Youth Concert to celebrate the spirit of giving in the North West District. Graced by President Halimah Yacob, the concert has gone from strength to strength, raising the highest amount of donations in 10 years, thanks to the strong support from corporate and individual donors, and the efforts of youth volunteers.
Aligned with the theme of this year’s SkillsFuture Festival @ North West “Learning for Everyone”, participants found themselves uncovering their career potential through profiling tests and gained insights to the three main growth economies - Digital, Green & Care sectors. Various hands-on technologies and tools from these sectors were readily available, as well as workshops and skills upgrading courses.
