ReadAble Ltd has served the children and families of Jalan Kukoh through its literacy programme since 2014, and its numeracy programme CountAble since 2019.
We marked our first anniversary of operations as a registered charity in September 2022, which follows more than 8 years as a volunteer organisation. At our latest annual general meeting (AGM) on 20 May 2023, members of ReadAble Ltd appointed the organisation’s current board of directors, comprising:
- Cindy Ng, social worker with over 20 years’ experience
- Germaine Ong, marketing and communications consultant
- Jonathan Muk, lawyer and co-founder of ReadAble
- Limonium Sua, business professional and founding team lead of CountAble
- Michelle Yeo, lawyer and co-founder of ReadAble
- Nabilah Said, editor, journalist and playwright
In this board, ReadAble has included independent directors for the first time, i.e. directors who are uninvolved in the organisation’s day-to-day operations. We look forward to the diversity of perspectives that our board will bring towards organisational goals and challenges, and thank our exited board members of 2022 for their various contributions:
- Sharlene Loh (w.e.f. 4 July 2022)
- Amanda Chong (w.e.f. 20 November 2022)
- Ervin Tan (w.e.f. 20 May 2023)
- Bernice Lee (w.e.f. 20 May 2023)
ReadAble Ltd is presently staffed by Bernice Lee, in the role of executive director, who runs the charity’s day-to-day operations. ReadAble is also operationalised by the charity’s core team and other members, who are involved in making key decisions together.
As a volunteer-run charity, ReadAble depends on our board members for their valuable expertise. Besides supporting ReadAble in empowering children and families through education, they ensure accountability and good governance practices for the effective operation of ReadAble.
Currently, ReadAble serves about 100 children between the ages of 3 and 17, and their families. We are grateful to our large team of volunteers for their continued dedication to our community and our efforts towards a more equitable society.
