Blessings In A Bag

Youths were gathered to splash their creativity on the billboard and bins at the launch of Blessings In A Bag new Drop-off point on Sunday, October 4 at SCAPE Youth Park. Alongside with the launch of the new collection point, Blessings In A Bag team held a donation drive for the Manila flood survivors. Members of the public came and gave donations-in-kind generously.

Blessings In A Bag is a non-profit organization that seeks to partner with existing communities, orphanages, schools, homes as well as initiatives to provide for the needs of underprivileged, abused and medically-ill children across Asia.

On a personal note, it was a fun-filled time for me to be part of the launch, painting for a good cause. I want to thank my extended family members for their generous contributions. It was amazing to have Stephen and my friends (Alex Pham and David Eng) who took their time-off on a Sunday to paint the billboard. It was great to see Emily Tan coming all the way down with her entire family to drop-off donation items. I’m happy that I’ve got friends who share a similar heart-beat and love for the community.

I also would like to thank Blessings In A Bag Team for giving us this opportunity to showcase our creativity and most importantly Emily Teng (Founder/Director of BIAB) for spear-heading this movement and being the agent of change: a blessing to those who have lost everything but their hope.

With this new drop-off point located in the heart of the city, it is a convenient for the public to drop off their donations-in-kind to help those in need. For more information, please visit http://blessingsinabag.org/.
