Finally, we decided to register as one of the 30hours Famine D.I.Y Camp & I took the challenge as a camp leader.

2009 Charitable Plan (PART 3)

Today, Amanda suggested whether are we interested to join World Vision,30hours Famine. She gave me the link www.worldvision.com.my/famine2009 for me to read through and know more about it.

She said as this year was the 2nd year they introduce D.I.Y Camp which means we can form our own camp with the name of V.I.F.C or if not, we can join other camps.

If we form our own D.I.Y Camp, one of us need to bear the responsibility as the Camp Leader.

I am quite interested with this but I don't know whether my hectic working schedule will allowed me to manage all this things & Amanda refused to become the Camp Leader :-(

I told her to give me some time think about it. Another ques that run in our mind, are we able to get enough ppl to join this event/project? As one of the requirement is, to form a D.I.Y Camp, a minimum of 10 ppls are needed.

So, before we really register to join as a D.I.Y Camp, we actually tried to approach and recruit our own VIFC Msian members, closest friends and colleagues. Its great to know that some of the ppl that we approach are interested to join for the sake of charity in helping to against poverty and helping the needy commnunities.

2009 Charitable Plan (PART 2)

I came out with a proposal for the visits to the Orphanage Home plan. The costs of this visits included souvenirs, light refreshment/lunch, in kind donations, etc. The proposed activities are games, light refreshement, clean up the compound and maybe sing along...

The budget that is needed for this plan is approximately RM1,800-RM2,000 which I am not confidence enough about how we able to raise such fund. Yet, I did listed out some activities that may help to generate funds.

And then, I send out an email to the members regarding their opinions about our charitable plan this year. They are given 3 choices:
1) One off donation to organizationg (eg. UNICEF, MAKNA, WWF, McDonald's Charitable fund, etc)
2) Kid adoption under World Vision
3) Orphanage home visit (budget around RM1,800-RM2,000).

Feedback- most of the members preferred choice 1 even though we are quite interested with the choice 2&3. However, choice 2 needs more commitment among each of us and as for choice 3,we do not have confidence that we able to raise that much of fund. Let's keep the best for last. Maybe till the moments we get lots of Msian members...that moment, it gonna be fun..maybe we can invite Van Ness to join us as well...~dreaming~

2009 Charitable Plan

2008 had passed and now we are in 2009...time to plan something for this year charitable project. One year once, as V Birthday present, and thats interesting yet exciting. Wondering what we gonna do this year? Something special?

So, I planned for our 2nd gathering. We meet up each other for a lunch then proceed to watch Kung Fu Chef together. Initially, we get a news that V will be coming to Malaysia to promote Kung Fu Chef yet, the news seems to be false. Sad to hear that...but of cos we will still going to watch it. Some of the girls are excited about this movie and some of us went to watch the Premiere few days ago...thanks to GSC, they managed to secure each of us a Giant KFC poster...

Date: 22/02/09, Sunday
Venue: Pavillion (Pepper Lunch)
Time: 12pm
Movie Slot: 2.30pm

And out of the surprise, we are going to meet with some AnD folks too and proceed to watch movie together. But we met with the girls from VIFC an hour earlier to discuss what we gonna do for this year?

After a long discussion, we planned to do something bigger this year. Maybe a visit to the orphanage home where we get to cook food for them, gave them souvenirs, play with them and maybe sing along. That sounds pretty great.

And we come out with some backup plan too...Donation to Makna, Donald's foundation, WWF, etc....

The group pic with AnD new friends...

P/S: Everyone were enjoying themselves so much with KFC.Yet I did something when the movie ended. I recorded the audio for the ending song of the movie illegally cos really love the song so much and we can't get it from anywhere that moment as Malaysia is the first country to release this movie. Then I share it with everyone. Sharing is caring...
