The British-Born Volunteer Who Served Singapore's Needy For 40 Years | Singaporean At Heart - Pt 3/4
When British-born Michael Gray came to Singapore in the 1980s, the chartered accountant soon became involved in advocating for greater access to services and facilities for the disabled - such as the toilets on Singapore Airlines.
That was just one of his quiet contributions to society’s underprivileged over 40 years. As an unpaid volunteer, he has gone from sitting on the boards of the National Council of Social Service and the Community Chest; to founding SUN-DAC, a first-of-its-kind centre for the intellectually disabled; to serving at the Ang Mo Kio Family Service Centre, and at PAVE, a non-profit dealing with family violence. Host Jo Tan finds out what has driven this naturalised citizen.
