Hi bro, I'm planning to charity somewhere that week. But why you plan to do on 24th April 2013? Any special events going on?

My suggestion is, try moving it to a weekend so that more people of the working adults class are able to join in the good cause..

Hope this is still on-going and will be successful!  thumbup.gif

Hi Guys,

not sure if this is still happening cuz TS doesnt seem to be replying PM....
but regardless, are yall interested to do it?

i can try and ask for bubble tea sponsors, if not i suppose other drinks or food will do?

All in all, let's just plan a happy day for an orphanage; what yall think?

Great kakaakajes! Okay, first of all we need to identify the orphanage and contact them to know what are their needs.

I am proposing it on the 20th April 2013. We have about one month from now to start planning and make it a successful event.
(I know the date cannot be fit for everyone but if you really wish to join but not able to, you may also contribute by passing the stuffs you bought to others who are attending)

P/S: I suggest to open a new topic by this weekend if T/S is still not replying. As his tittle and date there is misleading (If we are really changing to a weekend date).

And really thank you to everyone who are joining! We will make it a successful one!!  thumbup.gif

Thanks for the prompt replies guys/girls thumbup.gif



Firstly, I hope we are not being rude in 'riding' on this thread for now, but like nevenchailj said, let's open a new thread once we have a date and venue confirmed, or by this saturday, whichever is faster ok?


Date: Im okay with 20th April, Sat.
Venue: Where are all of you located? KL? PJ? Will try to narrow down a few orphanages around the areas we are closest to...
Contributions: I dont think it will be a issue, but as a precaution, i'll just try ask the orphanages if there are any concerns about us (ie strangers) providing food for them. also, i think if anyone has old clothes/books/toys, i think we can also bring down?

Lastly, please feel free to spread the message on your signatures, or to your friends/family etc.



Cheers and thanks tons,

Hi guys/ladies,

just wanted to highlight this; I hope i didnt offend anyone or sound like Im ranting about it.

I'd emailed one of the orphanges that I read on one of the threads who needed help - Stepping Stones, and they replied "We are glad to hear of your offer , however, we do not have the time to accept/slot in your visit to our home."

I didnt even put in a specified time/date, I just said we can provide some bought/homemade food and some services (haircuts, painting walls etc).

Honestly I am a bit appalled, but I suppose they need money (cash) more.

Perhaps we can go back to the same shelter that LazyKurosaki went to?

hmm... maybe just go back to the same one.. i try to make different type of dessert for them =) since there are not much choices for us? any opinion?

Yes yes you'd been there before right? As long as they are genuine, and we are genuine, i think any place is fine biggrin.gif

Hi Jessica,

Well, you did a great job in helping! No worries on what they have said. If that's what they replied, it just means that they are not in need for us to donate anything and they are financially stable to survive. I have been to a few homes and they are always welcoming you anytime of the day. If a home that requests for cash, normally I will just ignore them. They wouldn't mind what is being donated and they will always make good use out of it.

=)

yeah they even attached their monthly financial expenditure in their reply blink.gif

Oh wells, another eye opener.



I was also wondering if it's convenient/suitable to bring my dog along... You know how pets can help cheer people up? I was hoping we can do that in malaysia, but also need to consider whether these homes allow. I dont mind just sitting outside with my dog, and wait for willing kids to come out and pet/play with him. Because honestly, Im not a great communicator with little kids, so having a pet there can help open me (and them) up blush.gif
