Kamalijit Singh – WYCCS

The words that Kam chose to describe volunteering were love, service, hope and relational. For Kam, the most important thing is love. Kam’s faith plays a significant part in his volunteering, as a born-again Christian, Kam sees Jesus as his role model and has found that since coming to faith his heart and compassion for people has grown.

Being born into a Sikh family, Kam talked about being blessed with having a father who was kind and gentle and generous. Kam’s goal in life is to honour Christ and he does this by helping people. As a volunteer link worker Kam sees his role as “building relationships and building genuine friendships”.

Kam strongly recommends volunteering because it’s so rewarding and people have the opportunity to change lives – “So that little thing, don’t think you’re small, throw that pebble into the water and let it ripple out, change the world, change society, why not.”
