The Xiamen Trip

This year, Central Singapore CDC awarded 20 High-5 youths and 10 senior grassroots
leaders for their community service.  Soon after the award ceremony at the Grassroots
Club, they went for the Xiamen Exchange Programme in June. The visit enabled the
awardees to observe the three generational activities in Xiamen.  Here are some photos
taken during the visit.  Theresa and David also accompanied the awardees as officials.
