If you are a student looking for ways to help out the migrant worker community or just to give back, we have the opportunities for you. You can choose to join us on any of our three tracks – internships, project volunteers, or teacher-led initiatives. At ItsRainingRaincoats, we have our dedicated youth wing, NextGen that’s focused on activating youths keen to help migrant workers and make a difference in the community. We’re looking for youths who are proactive and enthusiastic, and are looking for opportunities to interact with or leave an impact on the overall wellbeing of our migrant workers here in Singapore. Experienced IRR mentors will also be on hand to help out your internships and projects. If you would like to intern with us or spend your school holidays in a meaningful way, you can consider joining NextGen.
