Celebrating Christmas @ Christmas 'round the corner'

                                   
Greetings Everyone!

How's your holidays coming along? We apologize for the lack of updates as we have been busy with our individual activities and at the same time brainstorming for our next project.

Moving on, on the Eve of Christmas, three of our team members proceeded down to Marine Parade to help raise funds for four beneficiaries.

The event was organized by Faith Community Baptist Church (FCBC). Every year, FCBC, will organized an event for Christmas.

This year, one of their highlights was the community charity mural. Sponsored by Nippon Paint, the mural "Nippon Paint Charity Mural" aims to raise a total of $50,000 for four beneficiaries and they are:

• Marine Parade Family Service Centre
• Yellow Ribbon Project
• Pertapis
• Touch Family Services    

Every $5 donated, you get to paint, two tiles. The mural consisted of 13, 872 tiles with a dimension of 17ft x 6ft (yes, it's really small!). All the tiles were numbered . For example, if the cup indicated the number 7, you would paint two tiles with the number 7 on it.


Apart from the mural painting, the event gave out free coffee, (sadly, we didn't drink coffee!) balloon sculpting,hand painting, ping pong challenge and photo booth.

FCBC managed to raise $25,000! Congratulations! :)

Although they did not reach their target, $25,000 is a huge sum raised by the community.

Do check out the video that we placed on this post to see our experience doing #paintforjoy and the event itself, Christmas 'round the corner'.

ENJOY THE LAST BITS OF HOLIDAYS!!!
