Introduction
Held annually at the Central Forum since 2005, CSC Day is an event where our volunteers in the different arms of CSC come together and interact with beneficiaries and other volunteers from our various Regular Volunteering Programmes (RVPs) and Special Projects (SPs).
In the process of meeting each other, the objective of CSC Day is to make sure both parties enjoy their time together to the fullest on this day. Volunteers also get a chance to gain a better insight into our RVPs and SPs, helping to build a more cohesive and closely-knitted CSC family.

CSC Day VII
This year we are working hard towards injecting CSC DAY VII with a warm, happy and fun atmosphere, prioritizing safety at first place at all times and improving interaction among our 3 targeted groups of beneficiaries and volunteers. With these 3 main objectives in mind, we specially created 8 game stations and a skit revolving around this year's theme (To Space and Beyond). The 8 stations are named based on the 8 planets and the stage is the Earth. CSC DAY VII is a one day event whereby volunteers and beneficiaries come together to enjoy one day of fun and exciting activities. Through the games, we are actually encouraging interactions between volunteers and beneficiaries, volunteers and volunteers and also beneficiaries and beneficiaries.
The beneficiaries are paired up with a volunteer to ensure their safety. The beneficiaries will go around the Central Forum, where 8 game stations will be lined up for them. Each game station is designed with a unique objective – e.g. showing care and concern for others or allows them to learn new knowledge through the game, before concluding with a short stage performance or dance item by the organizing committee.
By being through the games with their beneficiaries, the volunteers can attain a higher level of understanding of the beneficiary he or she is attached to, and henceforth open up opportunities for further volunteerism of potential volunteers in NUS.
In addition, we aim to involve only beneficiaries from our RVPs and we did it. Beneficiaries are well mixed from our respective RVPs. This is what makes this year's CSC DAY VII so much more meaningful. With respect to the supports from the RVPs, we tried our best to ensure that they are able to fully maximise their fun experience at our event. One of our game, shooting stars is well-liked by our beneficiaries that they even requested to have more sessions after the time is out.
