More than just an event, Voices for Hope reflected Taylor’s College’s philosophy of purposeful learning — where students are encouraged to put their communication skills into practice beyond the classroom.
While the campaign was led by current DICM students, past graduates continue to credit the programme for shaping their growth and confidence — both personally and professionally.
“DICM helped me to improve on my people skills and helped me to be more extroverted and more responsible for the job,” shared Raja Rajeswhaary A/P Gunasegaran, a DICM alumna now pursuing her degree in PR and Marketing at Taylor’s University.
Azelynna Lim, 2024 valedictorian and now a full-time PR Marketing Executive, reflected on one of her earliest breakthroughs, “Miss Siow encouraged me to go beyond interviewing friends and speak to NGOs. It was the first time I approached strangers in authority. That changed how I view communication — and myself.”
The event was part of DICM’s 25th anniversary campaign and joins a growing list of community-driven projects — from Wheels of Change to B40 Ibu Niaga and outreach workshops with the Dignity for Children Foundation — all aimed at equipping students with practical experience, empathy, and leadership.
