Jaclyn
From corporate life to a journey fuelled by passion, Jaclyn’s story is one of courage and dedication. She has always harboured a passion for working with people and had volunteered with various organisations prior to her working life. After spending five years in a multinational corporation, she returned to studying. As she knew her calling was to help others, she decided to study social work, which eventually led to an internship at Lakeside.
Today, she serves as the Acting Head of Lakeside Integrated Service Provider (ISP), working with youths-at-risk and guiding them through issues like truancy, petty offences, gangsterism, and challenging family needs.
Jaclyn also received unwavering support throughout her journey from her parents, Geoff and Aileen. They recognised the immense challenges she and her colleagues face daily while addressing the diverse social issues affecting today’s youths. They understand the pivotal role Lakeside plays in providing support and assistance to the community without discrimination.
They take immense pride in witnessing Jaclyn’s growth into the remarkable person she is today. Their support goes beyond words, as Aileen hosts events, and Geoff emcees fundraisers, in support of Lakeside’s cause – driven by the heartfelt belief that this is their chance to pay it forward for the blessings they have enjoyed.
