This crowdfunding started off because we aspire to fulfil our role as dietitian by reaching out to more people to create awareness about the importance of nutrition. We seek your support and funding to make our project a success!

What are we trying to do?

To become a Dietitian who will serve back to society, we have to complete a one-year professional training which includes Community training (6 weeks), Food Service training (6 weeks) and Clinical training (30 weeks). As previously mentioned, this project is part of our one-year professional training and upon finishing this project, we will be completing our community posting. This journey definitely will not be easy. However, we are excited to go through this project as a team. Nevertheless, through this project, we aim to deliver a message to the public on the importance of living a healthy lifestyle!

Why are we doing this?

Aside from wanting to graduate and become an accredited Dietitian, we would like to use the opportunity of organizing this community project to put theories into practice. Hands on experience such as this project will definitely help us improve as future Dietitians. We believe that through this project, we can experience a real-life working environment that will further shape our soft skills and hard skills. Not only that, giving back to the community is our upmost priority and we would like to share the knowledge we have gained from our course to the community.

How we will do this?

The timeline for our community project is as listed below:

Week 1-2: Pre-planning phase and identification of community’s needs

Week 3-4: Project implementation

Week 5-6: Project evaluation and group counselling

Benefits from this project

This project will not only bring benefit to us, but also to the targeted community and you! Not only that you will help us run the program, at the same time you will be contributing to the wellbeing of our community! Beside getting rewards based on funding amount, we will be updating you on the progress of our project through email. We hope that the community can be aware of the importance of nutrition in their daily life and progress towards a healthy society together!

Project budget

Several events will be held during our community project and all the expenses will be self-funded. Therefore, we need your help to achieve our budgeting target in order to run the project. Our project expenses will be allocated into before, during and after project:-

The main challenge of this program is covid pandemic that leaves us with no choice but to conduct the whole project online. Furthermore, despite having previous exposure on a similar yet smaller community project from our health promotion class, this will be our first experience organizing a big scale project involving lots of participants and huge fundings. Due to the current COVID-19 situation, we are challenged even more in finding sponsorship for the project. However, we took up the challenge to do crowdfunding in order to make this project a success!
