Outdoor Promotion at Orchard Road

Another day of outdoor promotion...and this time was at Orchard... Realise it's 1st Jul 07? It was the first day of GST hike and we all thought that it was going to have a huge impact on the public's spending...but well...the response from the public was still quite alright. :)

In my opinion, our team performed reasonably well...considering that Orchard is such a busy and hectic place even on weekends. However when we were there, we realised that there were also quite a number of students from Primary or Secondary schools doing charity fund-raising activities. Of course, we did have a kind of sensation that we had to compete with them...Haha ~ But I guess, all these are for a good cause. When any passer-bys were willing to donate to any of us, they are all supporting the beneficiaries from each of the different charity drives...and for this duck race, the proceeds of this charity event will go to support 6 beneficiaries representing a cross section of needs. Isn't that meaningful? :) When we adopt a duck at $10, the amount will be distributed to all 6 charity organisations...so it's like a one time contribution by each of us can benefit 6 benficiaries already. :)

Yup... So thanks a lot to those of you who had come forward to adopt a duck from us at Orchard Road... and to all the student volunteers...Thanks so much for assisting in this weekend promotion at Orchard. :) A good job done again. ;)
