Team Information
For this specific internship, the role of the team is to design and implement the partnership approach between the National Day Parade (NDP) and NVPC.
The key desired outcome is to seed the City of Good narrative and enable People, Organisations and Leaders to celebrate National Day by doing good.
Project:
This initiative is a collaboration between NDP and NVPC. It was launched in 2018 and the idea was to enable Singaporeans to celebrate the nation's birthday by giving back and caring for others in the community. This initiative is also NVPC’s contribution to NDP’s wider community engagement efforts and was a result of one of the Action Projects from the Company of Good Fellowship programme. For every edition, the initiative will explore opportunities for organisations to come onboard and design an activity that could involve volunteering, fundraising or collaborating with other organisations to do good.

- Develop the concept and plan for the partnership initiative.
- Engage with NDP representatives to pitch the partnership initiative.
- Work with internal teams to prepare the target list of participating organisations.
- Work with the marketing team to develop materials required to support the internal and external outreach and marketing efforts (e.g EDMs, email templates, websites, social media posts etc).
- Design and implement the onboarding process for the participating organisations.
- Achieve the targeted number of participating organisations.
- Serve as the point-of-contact for the participating organisations and monitor the progress of their initiatives.
- Cross-market relevant NVPC initiatives where appropriate.
