Comment se sent-on lorsqu’on a l’occasion de redonner aux gens qui nous entourent?
« Le service communautaire a été un élément central de ma vie, et cela a commencé grâce à Ambulance Saint-Jean lorsque j’avais 7 ans. À cette époque, ma famille a reçu un soutien inestimable de la part de bénévoles et du personnel hospitalier pendant le traitement du cancer d’un(e) proche. Maintenant que cette personne a survécu au cancer, je me sens motivé à redonner et à continuer à promouvoir la gentillesse. En tant que PRM bénévole auprès d’ASJ, je prodigue des soins médicaux aux membres de la communauté, un rôle que je trouve profondément gratifiant. J’ai aidé des centaines de patient(e)s lors d’événements, appréciant leurs sourires et offrant de la compagnie aux personnes qui font face à des difficultés. Bien que mes interactions soient souvent brèves, je me sens épanoui en sachant que ma communauté peut compter sur mon soutien. » - Kito Lam

How Does It Feel to Give Back?
"Community service has been a central part of my life, beginning with St. John Ambulance when I was 7. Around that time, my family received invaluable support from volunteers and hospital staff during a loved one’s cancer treatment. Now that they’re a cancer survivor, I feel driven to give back and continue promoting kindness."
