Flag Day 16 May

Today’s Flag Day was great and awesome! Jedi has got approximately 30(?) people turned up to support this event. The target for each individual is collect min. $100 within 4 ~5 hours. I think most of us have hit our target and a dozen of us have likely hit at $100 ~ $200 region (or more). So collectively we must have raised more than three thousands dollars in such a short time to help needy students through Hope Center!

My team comprises of C+C’s siblings YuJun, YuFei (Christine’s brothers) & ChongYao (CN’s brother), CN, Mark and myself. We were all quite serious about the fund raising and we split ourselves to stand at different locations (at Toa Payoh Central) to approach as many passing strangers as possible. We felt thirsty and tired after about 1 hour of continual asking for donation. During the break, we had bubble tea to quench our thirst at Mark’s place which is nearby the area. After that, we continued on for longer duration. By the time we finished, everyone was already feeling very tired physically but happy about the result.
