AGM Message
Thank you to the Committee and our Sponsors. We are pleased to have all
our major sponsors from last year return again this year. We also welcome
the addition of several new sponsors who share the vision of supporting the
youth. Our sponsors and patrons are our financial resources and
indispensable in an undertaking such as this.
We believe that their support is a manifestation of their belief in the cause
and trust in the people behind the Foundation. We greatly value this trust
and hope to translate this into genuine commitment to action. This is the
only way we can sincerely thank them and be assured of their continued support.
Our projects this year gained traction through our partnerships with our NGO's.
Focusing on our local campaigns this year; our Anti-Drug Campaign and our Be
Involved Campaign gained excellent results and participation by many members.
We learnt a great deal from this. Most importantly, we learnt that a
modest Foundation such as ours could make a difference.
We appreciate our friends who supported us, and helped us make things happen.
Finally we are impressed by the dedication of all those volunteers involved in
our projects and know that the experience would prove valuable in their personal
and professional development.
