Caregiver Service Executive
We are currently searching for a Caregiver Service Executive to boost CaringSG’s growth and programme success.
This year’s Purple Parade was held on 29 October 2022 at Suntec City to support inclusion and celebrate the abilities of persons with disabilities. 2022 marks the 10th anniversary for the Purple Parade, and the first time that CaringSG has participated in this event!
In the lead up to the Purple Parade, CaringSG held an online slogan quest for our members with two categories:
- Category 1: non-caregiver members can create their own short slogans to encourage caregivers
- Category 2: caregiver members can share their self-declared phrase that has always inspired them to remain motivated despite their challenges.
The contest ran until 30 November 2022. Scroll to the bottom of this article to see the winning slogans!
On the actual day of the Purple Parade, CaringSG members who dropped by the CaringSG booth and flashed their eCard were able to redeem limited edition free gifts (tote bag for caregiver members and a CaringSG badge for non-caregiver members).
Members as well as the public could also purchase specially made handicrafts to support the caregivers and youths of CAREcottage families (see their beautiful handicrafts here).
The highlight of the Purple Parade was the marching of contingents where participants marched together to show solidarity for persons with disabilities. CaringSG, together with Centre for Fathering, formed a strong marching contingent of 88 participants. Everyone was really happy and proud to be part of this meaningful event.
The Purple Parade was supported by five CAREkakis, nine CaringSG staff and twenty-two volunteers. A loud shoutout and thank you to our partners (Enabling Lives Initiative Grant by SG Enable and Tote Board, and Temasek Foundation) who made this meaningful event possible.
