Making It Bigger : One Step At A Time : Together

Referring to one of the previous posts by Philip, entitled "Making it BIG".

We'll do things step by step. Right now, we're doing charity in kind of a small scale. That is, just in our school, SMK Bandar Utama Damansara (4). So, let's make it bigger, step by step, together.

When I say step by step together, I mean everyone gets involved. Not just the students or teachers of SMKBUD(4). What i mean is students and even teachers if possible, from other schools or societies.

A collaboration between our school and other schools. We work together, side by side, to organize something bigger than what we're doing now.

We can meet up, discuss and agree on a project to work on in our respective schools. But of course, the objective of that charity project has to be similar, if not the same. Then, we shall join whatever we manage to come up with. Whether it is money, items, or man power. And finally, we will donate all of that to charity. It all depends on what the project is.

Yes, I know that doing a project like this won't be as simple as organizing something in your own school or organization because it involves the cooperation with other parties. However, I truly believe that with the right planning and the right parties, it will happen.

I hope that all of you reading this post understand what I'm trying to say here. Basically, it's just us working together with your party to organize a slightly bigger charity project.

So after reading this post, for those of you out there who are interested in working and collaborating with us to organize a charity project, do feel free to contact us via the Charity Blog's official email. On the other hand, if you guys rather not go through the hassel of getting your school's permission, but still wanna do something for charity, we definitely welcome any volunteers to help us out during the project as well.

Finally, I would like to thank you readers for taking your time to visit this blog. Once again, if you're interested in doing something for charity but do not know where to start, this is your call. Contact us to get started on a project together. Thank you.

Update on Mission to Johor

9 more days till we leave for Johor to help out the flood victims. I am glad to announce that our Mission have been approved by PPD (Pejabat Pelajaran Daerah Petaling) just after one day we submitted the documents. This is proved that even the Education Ministry supports our action. Well how many schools will accually do what we are doing right now right?

But the response of the donation drive is not that encouraging. Therefor, I urge all students of SMK BUD (4) to do your bit for charity. I am very sure that you all have old clothing that can still be wore so please be kind and donate those clothing. Remember charity starts at home, but should not end there. Besides CNY is nearing and I know many of you will be cleaning your house and throwing your old stuffs away. You can donate those stuff that are still usable to us! Don’t throw it away!

The flood victims will be really be appreciated if they know that we care for them very much. The transportation to Johor has also been confirmed. And I have news saying that Mr. Tony our school’s Yang Di-Pertua PIBG has agreed to donate 8 cartons of bottled mineral water. I will confirm this with the authority tomorrow and let you guys know.

Anyway here is a bit on our trip to PPD yesterday (30/1/2007). We consist of Pn. Karamjit, Jamie, Justin, Sarah and me made a trip to PPD to submit the documents. It was a hilarious and enjoyable trip. Pn. Karamjit was so nervous that she couldn’t even drive properly. Our life was at risk! (Just Joking) We left at 2.30p.m. reached the PPD building at approximately 3.30p.m. Yeah what took us so long? Pn. Karamjit made a mistake by taking us to the former building of PPD. She haven’t been there for a long time so it isn’t her fault. We had a fun time anyway. After we submitted the papers Pn. Karamjit treated us lunch as we all did not have our lunch earlier. We went to Secret Recipe at Centre Point. WE arrived back to school at 515p.m.

That's all for today! Will be back with more updates!

Raising Funds and items.

Dear Readers,
I have a request. I am planning to visit one Old Folks Home or Orphanage Home every month. I and a group of friends intend to donate items or cash to different Homes we visit every month. In order to do so we will need funding and sponsorship. But of course we all know that it isn’t easy to get such funding and sponsorship. So I urge all readers of Charity Blog to support our good course. And bloggers please help spread the word.

I ensure you all that this is not a prank or a way to earn money. We are doing this for the sake of charity. Many people always say that they want to do charity but don’t know how to. So our Charity Blog is your first step. Support our good course by donating items or cash to us. All items and cash will then be donated to respected Homes each month. This is all still in planning progress but I will not let this fail. No matter how long it takes us to gain support and strength I will still work on it. I believe that if one door is closed there are many other doors that are open.

I will update later on how to transfer funds and items to us. Names of donors will be published in our blog every month. If you are kind you can be a monthly contributor as well. I hope many people will give more advices and ideas as we are only teenagers who are lack of experience. I know people may not trust us in this but we will try our best to gain that trust from all of you guys. Advices and ideas on how to transfer funds and items will be most welcome.

Again, I would like to re-ensure you that we are not here to cheat your money. We are doing this for the sake of charity. Details of our Charity Projects will also be posted here every month. Pictures will also be taken when we make our visits to the Homes. And once again, I hope everyone will support our good course. Like stated on our blog’s banner “Charity begins at home, but should not end there.” So show that you care for others. Let this blog be your starting point of doing charity.

Lastly, any advices, ideas and words of encouragements can be posted in the comment page or you can e-mail us at our official e-mail address at the sidebar. May this be successful.

This mission is jointly organized by the Editorial Board, Kadet Remaja Sekolah and Scouts 151 of SMK Bandar Utama Damansara (4). As a scout and the founder of this Charity Blog of course I will offer myself to get involved. So come to date this will is my 3rd Charity Project. The other author of this blog, Ping Chien is also involved in this. Not too sure about Yan Yun.

OK back to topic. So why are we going to Johor? Besides going there to give moral support to them we are collecting items to be donated to them. Items like clothings, blankets, school bags, canned food and school uniforms will be collected starting from tomorrow in school. Hopefully people will donate generously. Well why want to throw your stuff away when you can donate right?
