Celebrating our Healthcare Hero on Nurses Day with 8,000 Flowers
In late July to early August 2026, under the leadership of District Governor Dolly Yeap, District 3310 organized this Nurses Day campaign, alongside the key efforts from Rotary Club of Singapore and all other Rotary Clubs across the island as participants. Together, we distributed around 8000 of vibrant gerberas to nurses and supporting staff across Singapore's healthcare institutions.
The message was simple yet powerful: We Care. We Serve. We Make a Difference. And this time, that difference was dedicated to the heroes in healthcare.
Rotary Club of Suntec City was thrilled to participate in District 3310's meaningful Nurses Day initiative, working alongside Rotart Club of Singapore to bring flowers and heartfelt appreciation to our nursing heroes across Singapore's healthcare institutions.
Over the past week, our club members have been out in the field, starting at the National Neuroscience Institute at TTSH, then moving through Khoo Teck Puat General Hospital and Changi General Hospital, celebrating at the Academia Building grand celebration, and wrapping up today at Dover Park Hospice. Each stop reinforced the same powerful truth: our nurses matter.
We had the privilege of delivering gerberas to both male and female nurses across these institutions, voices and hands often unseen but absolutely vital to our healthcare system.
A Campaign United
What moved us most was witnessing all 27 Rotary Clubs in Singapore rally behind this cause. The unified message was unmistakable: We see you. We value you. We care.
More Than Just Flowers
As we presented flowers to nursing staff, we also made a deliberate choice to recognize our maintenance and support teams. Their contributions often performed behind the scenes are equally essential to the functioning of our hospitals and the care our patients receive.
The expressions of gratitude we witnessed were humbling. These dedicated professionals answered a calling to nursing not for accolades, but because they believe in the work. To see their faces light up, to hear their sincere thank you, it reminded us exactly why Rotary exists: to recognize and honor those who give so much to our community.
Thank you to every nurse, every healthcare worker, and every club that stood with us.
