A New Begining

Sharity gift box is back once again. Feeling excited! It is my second year helping up in SGB. This year being in the main com was event more challenging for me. This year target is to achieve 500 food packs. My cluster, cluster C is aiming to get 120 food packs. Publicity plays an important role in promoting and making people aware of this event that is happening in SP so that they could contribute and do their part.

Some of the primers, including myself, actually gave out flyers in the morning at Dover MRT to the students and lecturers who pass by there before entering into the school to let them know that SGB is here. It was not very easy in the beginning as there are people who will reject us but after awhile we got use to it and we just try our best to give out as many flyers as possible. Many primers happen to pass by us and we asked them to share the details with their classmates and friends as well. During lunch time, huiwen and I actually went to school of SMA and ABE to knocks at lecturers doors to let them know about SGB and hoping that they will pledge as many food packs as possible. Some of them were very generous, on the spot they gave us the money and ask us to but on behalf of them. Many said that they will pledge as many food packs as possible.

We also went house to house at clementi to knock at their doors and told them about SGB and hope that they could help buy donating food packs. It was challenging to many of us in the beginning as it might be the first time for many of us. However, it was a great experience for me. People there are quite friendly and nice. They actually spare us their time and listen to us explaining the details. We will be going back to collect the food pack on 28th November (Saturday). Hope that we will be able to get as many food packs as possible.
