Mothers' day Charity

On Mothers' Day two weeks ago, I went to participate in this charity drive by the BOSS group to present flowers to mothers. It was a very meaningful activity and despite sleeping only a few hours after celebrating my friend's birthday the night before, i managed to wake up to carry on this mission.

We went to Whampoa market and reach at 730am to listen to the briefing. Each of us has 20 stalks of flowers to give out. When i was walking along the block with the market stalls, some aunties were hesistant in taking the flowers from us. Some mothers did not even know that it was mother's day too. They were quite surprised when we gave them the flowers.

After that, we went to an old folks home nearby and gave the flowers to the old folks. They were very happy and one old lady even came and talk to us in cantonese which i could not really understand.

After everything, we drove to Radin Mas CC where the debrief was held. There were some stage presentations and performances by the Group but i did not manage to stay throughout. I am really too tired after a late night. Overall it was a nice meaningful experience and i would love to participate again next year if time permits!
