Entrepreneurship in the territories: is it the right time?
Ambulance Wish (Singapore) Ltd. is a registered charity with an Institution of Public Character (IPC) status. Incorporated in May 2019, our work supports terminally ill patients and their loved ones through the simple but deeply meaningful act of wish-granting. By helping to fulfil these wishes, Ambulance Wish Singapore wants to transform the end-of-life experience for patients with a limited prognosis of less than 12 months, giving them and their families a measure of joy, peace and comfort. As a volunteer-led organisation, the work of Ambulance Wish Singapore is an extension of the provision of care for the dying that goes beyond the walls of hospitals and hospices, to impact homes and hearts. Ambulance Wish Singapore strives to fulfil wishes and celebrate lives.
This will be a full-time position, reporting to the Executive Director (ED), and will play a key role in supporting Ambulance Wish Singapore’s finance, governance and administrative functions.
