Public Affairs and Social Service Society: Social Service Officer

Hi, I’m Christine, a Pharmacy student. UCLPASS has given me a true sense of belonging and a group of friends I deeply cherish. As your proposed Social Service Officer, I want to give back to the community that welcomed me by creating meaningful volunteering opportunities and encouraging that same sense of connection for every member.

Being in the Amazing Raise committee this year showed me how much of a difference we can make when we work as a team. I enjoyed organising the flagship and I am excited to lead it to even greater success next year. With my experience in logistics and event planning, I can ensure the event runs smoothly and effectively. My goal is to foster a culture of team unity and clear communication, ensuring every volunteering opportunity is rewarding for our members.

Hi guys! I'm Ernest, a BA Comparative Literature freshman striving for the title of Social Service Officer.

Throughout the numerous years that I had been volunteering and tutoring children, a voice often echoed in my head:

"Life is never just sunshine and rainbows, there are always storms and hurricanes."

Yet, when we brave the headwinds, not only can we enjoy the sunlight peeking through the gloomy clouds ourselves but also share that blessing with others who are less fortunate.

I endeavor to encourage members to participate in this grand mission as well, to bring all to witness that light that is called hope.

My journey in social service has equipped me with valuable skills and experiences:

About me
Hi! I'm Cherise, a first-year law student. I joined PASS because I was looking for a place where I could connect with others while giving back through meaningful social service. PASS has given me the opportunity to form precious bonds with many people and I hope to give back by leading impactful social service projects. I believe there is a unique satisfaction and fulfillment we gain by supporting and caring for those in need, such that giving not only uplifts those we help, but strengthens the bonds within a community.

Service fosters an environment rooted in compassion, hope, and belonging. I hope to be a driving force for greater engagement within the PASS community and to help cultivate a culture of care where everyone can experience the joy of giving.
