BRIEF OVERVIEW
The Rivervale Red Cross Link unit has grown remarkably since its inception in 1999. Under the wings of our industrious and creative team of teachers, the unit has received many accolades for their great effort in serving the community.
They brought smiles to the less fortunate and needy with their community projects and home visits. With the strong support received from our school leaders, community partners and most importantly our dedicated and loyal Red Cross links, our Red Cross unit has earned many awards in the various competitions organized by the Singapore Red Cross Society.
