Celebrating 200 wishes... - Make-A-Wish Foundation

Make-A-Wish Foundation ® (Singapore) Ltd
British Club Fun Family Day – 20 July 2007
It was a wonderful warm summer’s day on
Sunday 20 May at Bukit Tinggi, home of
the British Club Singapore. Make-A-Wish
Foundation® had been cordially invited to
be a part of their exciting repertoire of Asian
activities for the Club’s Family Day. This
year’s theme was ‘Everything Asian’.
Over 25 volunteers were involved with
the Make-A-Wish booth featuring balloon
sculpting, face painting, Asian art paper
cutting, hair styling and match the colours
game. It was wonderful opportunity for
us to meet and bond with the members
of the British club. They have been ardent
supporters of the Foundation and have
helped contribute to making many wishes
come true.
The family day was filled with many
wonderful stalls & activities. There were
performances to depict almost every
Asian race and a highlight of that was
the audience participation. Our very own
volunteer Erin took part in one such activity
“belly dancing”. The family day came to
a crescendo with the lion dance troupe
performing acrobatic stunts to the beat of
24 different drums.
The continued adoption of Make-A-Wish by
The British Club is a cherished priviledge. We
are deeply grateful to the generosity of the
members and the wonderful support from
the team. Thank you for the contribution
made on 6 February for the amount of
$10,934.50 towards the Foundation’s
operating costs.
Wish ® Singapore on a “Finding Nemo” Disney-On-Ice Adventure
“We are greatly appreciative of the support rendered by Disney
and Feld to bring smiles and happiness to our Wish Children and
their families.”
The Walt Disney Company is dedicated to making the wishes of
families and children a reality through public service initiatives,
community outreach and volunteerism in the areas of compassion,
learning, the arts and the environment. Through its community
outreach programs, Disney brightens the lives of children and
families through its many partnerships.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation and Disney began a relationship
in 1980, when Disney helped the newly formed charity grant its
first wish.
The Foundation’s mission reflects the life-changing impact that
the experience of a wish has on children, families, referral sources,
donors, sponsors, and entire communities. It is the Foundation’s
goal to reach every medically eligible child in Singapore and
provide them with a bit of hope, strength and joy.
