HEY GUYS!!!!

Have you heard of Rock Up! 2008??

 

No???

 

Rock Up! is a fundraising event aimed to raise funds for Agathians Shelter. The orphanage is currently raising funds for the construction of their new residence and is in need of RM350,000 to complete the construction of their new residence. Thus, this fundraising event will be aiming to raise at least RM100,000 in order for the home to begin construction work.

The details of the charity event:

Date: Friday, May 9, 2008

Time: 12pm – 10pm

Venue : Centre Court, the Curve

Raffle tickets are priced at RM5 each and will be sold before and during the event itself. In line with the event’s tagline “Music to Change”, the event will feature musical and dance performances from the children of Agathians Shelter, Diplomats of Drum, Furniture, Junji Delfino and many others. It will also feature a celebrity fashion show where the clothes worn by the models will be sold in an auction.

Of Sports Day, Square Dancing and Volunteering

Last Saturday was Bukit Bintang School’s Sports Day! Most of the boys in Agathians Shelter were involved and thus we bundled the rest of them and trooped over to the school field to join in the fun! Needless to say, we cheered and shouted till we were hoarse…

Scenes like this must have brought back a LOT of memories..

It was a pleasant surprise to see the children from Trinity at the field as well. We must have looked a bit mad, waving ecstatically and shouting names..oh well!

The boys at Agathians proved to be a sporty lot when they brought home so many medals. Three cheers for our young heroes!

Stefan and Ayumi couldn’t resist joining in the fun and they signed up for the Parent-Teacher Event.

For Stefan, it was the tug-of-war event..

And finished with our favourite Cotton-Eye Joe!!!

While on Sunday, several of us volunteered at the Assumption Church, PJ to help Assunta Children’s Society to distribute flyers and collect donations in aid of their new building (as the current one is in pretty bad shape). They are selling bricks, and each costs RM20. Nonetheless, any amount is welcome.

If you wish to help, feel free to contact us and we will inform you on the relevant details..

Hope to see you again soon! =)
