Volunteering for United Voice


United Voice??? Erm what is that?? This may be your reaction when you see this post. Well, United Voice is the first society that led persons with learning disabilities such as Down Syndrome, Autism, Attention Deficit Disorder, Global Developmental Delay and Cerebral Palsy. This society allow the children with learning disabilities to apply self-advocacy activities. By doing so, they can learn to be more independent and voice up for themselves. United Voice also created an Employment Project for the members to provide employment for the member with learning disabilities. They have two departments which are Card & Craft Studio, Bakery and Art Gallery. The products that hand made by the employees included saori (Japanese weaving), bookmarks, greeting cards, cookies and art pieces. 













So for the past one week, Yin Yee, Hoon Mun, Yee Yein, Eugene, Joe and I chooses Subang Parade for the volunteering work, helping United Voice to promote their selling and create awareness to the public about the potential of persons with learning disabilities.
