Dear parents,
today all our 3B pupils received a booklet of 10 tickets!
This fundraising effort is part of our Community Involvement Programme (CIP) for our P3 students.
The tickets are meant to be sold to raise funds for a good cause and the organisation that we will be helping is the AIN Society.
If you are interested to know more about the organisation, here's the link:
http://www.ainsociety.org.sg/
Each ticket a student sells, contributes $2 to the building of a cancer centre for women and children with cancer.
The students have been briefed not to approach strangers to sell the tickets. Family and friends who buy the ticket get a chance to participate in the lucky draw that will be held on 1 Sep 2012 at the AIN Society's office.
As with all goodwill efforts, there is no compulsion. Students are encouraged to sell as many tickets as they can. However, there is no set target (ie minimum number of tickets to be sold). Any contribution is welcome.
Our pupils seem to be really enthusiastic for the cause and requested for more booklets.
However, I don't wish to issue out extra booklets for the sake of it and in the end the onus falls on parents to be the ones raising funds(or paying it out of their own pockets) just so to complete the booklets.
Hence, if your child wishes to contribute more and you are also fine with it, please sms me so that I know that you are fine with another booklet being issued.
Booklets issued out on : 17 May 2012 ( 38 pupils have signed to acknowledge that they have received the booklet)
Time period to sell tickets: From today(17/5/2012) till the end of June holidays
Collection of Booklets (SOLD & UNSOLD) & Money by Miss Priya:
TERM 3 WEEK 1 ( 1st day of school onwards)
(Parents, I seek your cooperation in ensuring that the child does not bring money next week (Term 2 Week 10). It's easier to collect all the money and booklets and consolidate them if they all bring it in during the same time period.)
No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted. - Aesop
Thank you in advance for your contribution and effort 3B pupils and parents!
Ms Priya :)
