A great Spanish philosopher, Maimonides, once said in the 12th century, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
And this is what Bizlink is all about!!
Bizlink Centre is a registered charity with IPC status. Our mission is to reach out to needy disadvantaged persons including those with disabilities to assist them in achieving independence, dignity and integration into the community through vocational training and employment.
Kamas Bin Mohd (45) is a great example! An paraplegic with extreme determination. He acquired his disability in 1996 when he met with an accident at the workplace and resulted in spinal injuries which affected his lower extremities. He used to worked in the oil and gas sector and enjoyed his tenure within his employment until his accident.
He used to have a strained relationship with his family and struggles with the strained relationship with his family and had to succumb himself to being a destitute for three years without any place to live. He was living under void decks and committing himself with illegal solicits to suffice himself financially. His relationship with his family improved upon his employment with Bizlink. He changed his ways and has proved to everyone around him that with a good social support network, determination and hard work, you will achieve your dreams.
Kamas is now a part of the Singapore National Wheelchair Basketball team. He has represented the nation on various competitions and has bring home a few medals of achievements. He enjoys the opportunity and life chances that Bizlink has presented to him by giving him a sense of inclusion within the society and the community. His leadership works at the sheltered workshop has brought new meaning for himself as he is able to change his mindsets about people with disabilities while providing him opportunity to grow as a leader.
