For a long time, we have discussed offline and here on this forum the idea of taking SilverHairsClub to another level, and making the club more structured and registered.  We have all discussed, and the preference is to have SHC what it is today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Next, I had offered to member\/s to take over SHC, with the aim of shouldering the costs, legality and management of SHC, and maintaining SHC as it is today.  However, I have not been able to find someone or groups to take over this role.  As I have mentioned many times, I am in Singapore no more than 3-4 days a month, and have not been able to participate in most activities too.  Most members are aware of my travelling patterns and absence from activities. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I had also offered to members to form a registered or business entity to own and run SHC, while leaving SHC social activities as it is to the Club manager.  I did not receive any viable plans or concept.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This brought me to the idea of creating a new business organisation end 2011 – "SilverHairs Enterprise Pte Ltd" which owns SilverHairsClub.com and SilverHairsClub, a social and informal club for Singaporeans over 45 to meet new and more SilverHairs friends.  SilverHairs Enterprise is intended to be the formal link with outside organisations and the public.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The initial targets of SilverHairs Enterprise PL (SHE) is to  look at part-time work opportunities for SHC retirees and to find means to keep the club financially sound, without collecting membership fees. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

So, you will hear more from SilverHairs Enterprise and more links to the public via SHE. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

I like to set a one-year goal to relinquish my responsility as founder of SHC, and be an ordinary member.  I really do not have the time and resources to continue running SHC as it is.  3-4 days in Singapore now and in the coming years is not possible to run SHC and now  SHE as it is.  Neither can I continue to fund the organisations indefinitely. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To make this possible, I intend to identify volunteers to work inside SilverHairs Enterprise PL, as I and SHE obviously cannot afford to pay salaries.  We do not receive government support, and neither are we a charity organisation where we can solicit funds.  When the different roles become successful and profitable, SHE will be able to pay for this part-time roles. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

This is the way forward, as I do not wish to see SHC and SHE discontinued when I am unable to do so.  I also prefer to go over future ideas and tasks, rather than relook back at what we have discussed over the last few years. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If you feel you have the experience and would like to work for SHE in a volunteer role, I would like to discuss with you how you can fit into SilverHairs Enterprise Pte Ltd. This is where you can re-engage yourself with outside organisations and the public.  You may write to me at terences@SilverHairsClub.com. As a member, please feel free to offer your comments and ideas here. If you like to track back to the last discussion, read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
