Cat C, Honourable Mention: “Singapore’s Mother Teresa” by Amber Alexyz M. Lamsen
I chose Teresa Hsu Chih to spotlight her extraordinary achievements and lasting legacy, which I believe will continue to inspire future generations. Teresa generously donated to charities such as Heart to Heart Service and the Home for the Aged Sick, dedicating nearly all of her personal funds to providing food, shelter, and support for the poor and elderly. Her selfless contributions earned her numerous awards and widespread recognition for her tireless efforts and compassion. Through my artwork, I aim to demonstrate how Teresa Hsu Chih has inspired workers, volunteers, and citizens to dedicate themselves to making a meaningful impact on society. She truly earned the title of “Singapore’s Mother Teresa”.
