The Lifestart Foundation team is profoundly grateful for the unwavering support of Dr. Wong's Trust. His kindness and enduring legacy, preserved through the provisions of his will, ensure that his philanthropic work continues to fund meaningful projects well into the future.

Born in China in 1931 to pharmacist parents, Dr. Geok Hua Wong endured significant challenges early in life. Amidst political turmoil and war, his family relocated to Singapore around 1940. During the Japanese occupation of Singapore in 1942, Dr. Wong, then just 12 years old, and his parents were detained in Changi Prison. Despite the hardships of internment, Dr. Wong cultivated a deep passion for learning, using every resource available to him.

After their release in 1945, Dr. Wong spent a few years in Singapore before traveling alone to Melbourne in 1949 at the age of 18 to pursue higher education. He graduated as a doctor from the University of Melbourne in 1955 and later specialized in Psychiatry. Over a distinguished career spanning public hospitals and private practice, Dr. Wong also provided expert testimony in high-profile criminal cases.

Beyond his medical career, Dr. Wong was a devoted patron of the arts, with his name inscribed as a major donor at the National Gallery of Victoria. Following his passing in 2015, a Trust was established to continue his legacy of generosity.

The Trust supports initiatives that align with Dr. Wongโ€™s vision of benefiting the community through measurable outcomes.

Dr. Wongโ€™s legacy lives on through the Trustโ€™s continued commitment to meaningful philanthropy, honoring his lifelong dedication to community, health, and the arts.

That life-changing support not only enabled her to continue her education, but also helped shape the person she is today. In ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‘, Dieu proudly graduated from ๐ƒ๐š๐ง๐š๐ง๐  ๐”๐ง๐ข๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐…๐จ๐ซ๐ž๐ข๐ ๐ง ๐‹๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฎ๐š๐ ๐ž ๐’๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐ข๐ž๐ฌ, carrying with her not only academic knowledge, but also a strong desire to give back.

In ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ, Dieu joined Lifestart Foundation as an intern - and very quickly, she knew she had found her place. She made the decision to stay on after her internship, and today, she is a valued member of the team, dedicated to supporting disadvantaged communities and helping to create brighter futures - just as others once did for her.

From translating letters and mentoring students, to editing photos, designing materials, and supporting the manager with special projects - she approaches each task with care and purpose.

What drives Dieu most is the ๐ฃ๐จ๐ฒ ๐ฌ๐ก๐ž ๐ฌ๐ž๐ž๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ž๐ฒ๐ž๐ฌ of those Lifestart Foundation supports.
