MILK and purple hearts

Continuing on the topic of CIP, Lesley-Anne spent the whole of last Sunday volunteering for the MILK Fund's Purple Hearts event at Plaza Singapura. MILK stands for Mainly I Love Kids and it's a wonderful charity organisation that reaches out to disadvantaged kids and youths.

Basically for the event, every $2 donation buys you an origami purple heart which is then attached to a Christmas tree at the atrium. The target is 30,000 hearts over this Christmas season.








Throughout the day, Lesley-Anne performed various tasks such as preparing the balloons, giving out free packets of tissue, folding the paper hearts and asking for donations.

It also helped that there were other kids there and after the 10-hour session when we returned to pick her up, she was laughing, chatty and I could see that she had really enjoyed volunteering at this event.

Here she is in action!

It's a worthwhile cause so if you're ever in the Plaza Singapura vicinity, do contribute a paper heart or two. I believe the event will carry through right up to Christmas.
