For Faith, every day at Diabetes Singapore brought new opportunities to learn, grow and make a difference. From creating content and planning events to supporting outreach initiatives and engaging stakeholders, her internship was filled with meaningful experiences and hands-on learning.

๐Ÿ’ก One of her biggest takeaways was discovering that preventing diabetes goes beyond healthy eating. Education, healthy habits, community support, and early intervention all play an important role in helping people live healthier lives.

โค๏ธ What touched her most was meeting individuals and families affected by Type 1 diabetes. Through their stories of hope, resilience and positivity, Faith gained a deeper appreciation of the strength of the diabetes community and the impact of Diabetes Singapore's work.

๐ŸŒฑ Along the way, she developed stronger communication, time management, event planning and content creation skills, while learning to adapt in a fast-paced environment.

When asked to describe her internship in one word, Faith chose:

๐Ÿ’œ ๐—š๐—ฅ๐—”๐—ง๐—˜๐—™๐—จ๐—Ÿ

"Thankful for a meaningful internship that challenged me to broaden my perspective."

โœจ Thank you, Faith, for your dedication, enthusiasm, and willingness to serve others. Your journey reminds us that while work builds experience, it is often the people we meet along the way who leave the greatest impact.

For Jason, no two days at Diabetes Singapore looked the same. From policy development and process improvement to volunteering at community events and engaging external partners, every experience brought new opportunities to learn, contribute, and grow.

๐Ÿ๏ธ One lesson that stayed with him was gaining a deeper appreciation of the realities of living with diabetes. While many people may not see it, managing diabetes requires constant attention, discipline, and resilience every single day.

๐Ÿค What made the biggest impact were the moments spent connecting directly with the community. Whether volunteering at the Sugar Smart Festival and Sugar Smart Families programmes or observing how partnerships are built, Jason gained valuable insights into how organisations and communities come together to create meaningful change.

Through his internship, he strengthened his communication, project management, and stakeholder engagement skills while learning to adapt in a fast-paced environment.

When asked to describe his internship in one word, Jason chose:

๐Ÿ’™ ๐ƒ๐˜๐๐€๐Œ๐ˆ๐‚

"From governance to community outreach, no two days were ever the same."

๐ŸŒŸ Thank you, Jason, for your enthusiasm, adaptability, and commitment to making a difference. Your journey reminds us that every conversation, partnership, and act of service contributes to a healthier and stronger community.

โœจ Meet Wan Yee, our latest feature in the series!

As a Marketing Communications & Engagement Intern at Diabetes Singapore, Wan Yee dove into the heart of our organisation โ€” uncovering our history, supporting outreach, coordinating events, and helping bring meaningful stories to life.

๐Ÿ’ฌ โ€œWork is like a box of chocolates; you never know what youโ€™re going to get!โ€

From researching decades of community impact to creating visuals that preserve our shared memories, she discovered how diabetes care is shaped not just by individuals, but by families, friends, volunteers, and the wider community.

๐ŸŒŸ Her internship journey was one she describes as ENRICHING โ€” filled with new experiences, collaborative projects, and memorable moments like supporting the Sugar Smart Festival and meeting beneficiaries faceโ€‘toโ€‘face.

Thank you, Wan Yee, for bringing your creativity, heart, and energy to our mission. ๐Ÿ’™

โœจ | Meet Jie Min โœจ

๐Ÿ“Š For Jie Min, her internship at Diabetes Singapore was more than developing policies and analysing data. It was about understanding the people behind the numbers and turning insights into meaningful action.

๐Ÿ’ก One of her biggest takeaways was learning that diabetes is influenced by much more than sugar intake. Factors such as exercise, sleep, and family history all play an important role in shaping one's health journey.

๐Ÿค What impacted her most were the conversations with Diabetes Singapore members. Listening to their stories of courage, resilience, and perseverance gave her a deeper appreciation of how outreach, advocacy, and support can make a real difference in people's lives.

When asked to describe her internship in one word, Jie Min chose:

๐Ÿ’™ EYE-OPENING

"Every effort made in outreach and support creates a lasting impact in people's lives."

๐ŸŒŸ Thank you, Jie Min, for your passion, curiosity, and dedication to serving the community. Your work reminds us that every policy, programme, and conversation has the potential to create positive change.

โœจ Meet Raphael, our Brand Management & Engagement Intern, in the latest series of (2nd Edition)!

During his internship, Raphael helped strengthen Diabetes Singapore's brand through event support, communications, and community engagement initiatives.

One of his most memorable experiences was hearing firsthand the inspiring stories of beneficiaries and stakeholders while filming interviews, reminding him of the real impact behind every project.

When asked to describe his internship in one word, his answer was:

โค๏ธ PURPOSEFUL

"Creating meaningful impact through every project."

Thank you, Raphael, for helping us create a stronger voice and deeper connections within our community.

Our presence at the carnival reflects a key focus for us: empowering children and youths ๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽ“with the right knowledge early. Healthy habits formed young have the strongest longโ€‘term impact, and todayโ€™s youths are tomorrowโ€™s advocates, caregivers, and changemakers.๐ŸŒฑโœจ

๐Ÿ’™ At our booth, we were glad to meet many young ones and students ๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŽ“ โ€” some of whom came with their parents โ€” eager to learn about practical steps they can take to stay healthy and prevent diabetes.

Their curiosity and enthusiasm reaffirm our belief that youth engagement is not just important โ€” it is essential for building a healthier Singapore for generations to come. ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ’ซ

Special thanks to our youth volunteers from Anderson-Serangoon Junior College and Jurong Pioneer Junior College for journeying with us on our efforts to advance the national conversations on blood sugar, a key step towards preventive health. ๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

๐Ÿ’™ Nursesโ€™ Day 2026 โ€” Celebrating the Hearts Behind the Care

Every day, our Diabetes Singapore nurses show up with compassion, patience, and a kind of strength that quietly changes lives. ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ’ช

Today, we celebrate them โ€” and weโ€™re letting our patients do the talking. ๐Ÿซถ

โœจ โ€œShe didnโ€™t just check my numbersโ€ฆ she checked how I was coping.โ€
โœจ โ€œI felt seen, heard, and never rushed.โ€
โœจ โ€œShe explained everything so clearly. I left feeling confident, not scared.โ€
โœจ โ€œHer encouragement helped me believe I could manage my diabetes.โ€

These Google reviews reflect what we see daily โ€” nurses who go beyond clinical care to deliver comfort, clarity, and confidence. ๐Ÿ’›
Nurses who make patients feel safe. Nurses who turn fear into empowerment. Nurses who remind every person that they are not alone. ๐Ÿค—

Today, we honour your skill, your empathy, your resilience, and the countless moments of kindness that never make the headlines but change someoneโ€™s life forever. ๐ŸŒˆ

๐Ÿ’™ Happy Nursesโ€™ Day to our incredible nurses โ€” the superheroes who donโ€™t wear capes, but scrubs.

From eye screening ๐Ÿ‘€ to foot screening ๐Ÿฆถ, from nurse counselling ๐Ÿ’ฌ to community outreach ๐Ÿค, from conducting HbA1c tests ๐Ÿงช to giving community talks ๐ŸŽค โ€” you make early detection possible, you empower families, and you help thousands manage diabetes with confidence and hope.

Thank you for being the heartbeat of Diabetes Singapore.

We celebrate you today and every day. ๐Ÿ’™โœจ

During our community talk on Sugar Smart Living, we shared about the many factors that affect blood sugar โ€” beyond just white sugar โ€” and also how fibre helps slow down blood sugar spikes. A simple tip: eat fibre first, followed by protein and carbohydrates. ๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿ’ช

At our booth, we met residents living with diabetes who shared their tips in keeping blood sugar in control, including Mdm Toh who diligently goes for a short walk after every meal which she found effective in keeping her blood sugar steady. ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธโœจ

Thank you, Woodgrove, for having us and giving us the opportunity to spread awareness on blood sugar โ€” a key step towards preventive health. ๐Ÿ’™

Letโ€™s live Sugar Smarter, together! ๐ŸŒŸ
