Our Team
Jacey Ong
Co-Founder
Operations & Business Development
Jacey is the brain behind WeHiro.
She is responsible for the thought-process behind every step the organisation takes and ensures that every program is executed well. She never lets good work go unnoticed and always strives to bring value to the community. Her passion to bring to light social issues through WeHiro and in her daily life motivates her to do more.

Abigail is the workhorse of WeHiro.
She is responsible for making sure everyone on the team achieves their goals and paid on time. She also works hard to ensure more people learn about WeHiro. Through WeHiro she hopes to be able to help other youths realize that they too can do something to solve social issues in the community.
She is a movie and meme fanatic. Sometimes you can catch her laughing at her phone and soon you will receive a funny meme from her.
Yong Hao
Advisor
Innovations & Community Development
Yong Hao is the ideas machine of WeHiro.
He is responsible for coming up with new ideas that WeHiro can explore to tackle a social issue. He is always quick to think of innovative ways to solve every day problems. To him, every social issue is complex and is never a one-man job. He hopes to equip youths with the knowledge and the “want” to address social issues.
He loves animals and his favorite animal is a cat. He will also send funny stickers to the team to cheer us up.
