Present Me Event – December 2016 Giveaway

We mentioned about our Present Me Event – December 2016 Giveaway in our previous posts on promoting the event and the gifts given away at this event. Before this, let us show you some information about our blog packages.

The event has ended and we enclose our video here on the event for your viewing. In case it does not load below, the link to the video is at https://youtu.be/F1Ic-PQjM_8.

 

 

Aside from the gifts of umbrella and recyclable shopping bag given away, we also gave bonus gifts during this event. We allowed people to post on our event page about their giving story and their giving story will be mentioned in our blog here.

Our owner began the ball rolling for this giveaway event, which is themed around the art of giving especially to those who need. When our owner was shopping for essential items at a Personal Care store which is a type of health care and beauty care chain store, our owner came across some employees at that store that offered good customer service and was nice to us during our shopping experience. Despite the store items not being properly set up as they were newly opened, the employees offered good customer service. So we decided to reward them with a shopping voucher to give them the needed encouragement to carry on with their good services. Here is a short video clip of the said employees at that store.

 

Here are more posts on our Facebook event page for your viewing pleasure.

 

 

Madam Wong, who is sometimes featured in our event tips video, posted on our Facebook event wall about her story of giving. She wrote, “I cooked dinner with my husband and baked cake in the morning on Christmas Day. I feel happy because I get to cook for my family. This is needed to keep my family together and we get to dine together“. The picture of Madam Wong here is a picture of her cooking during Christmas Day.

Jen Gumienny who is from Canada and traveling around Asia, sent us a link to a video about an airline company organising a Christmas celebration for folks at a town in Canada who suffered the misfortune of losing their homes. They received a surprise gift each and free flight tickets. Jen celebrated Christmas in Penang this year. She wrote, “In Canada this is a recent story of amazing giving. This town Fort McMurray had a devastating fire and families lost everything. Our local airline decided to give back… beautiful story“.

 

Paul Ang, who is a photographer who has photographed for our previous event wrote, “…Every year, the residents will head out of the (Penang Cheshire) Home to spread joy and liven up the spirits of others during this joyful season through their singing and merriment in a fundraising project. The residents visit a vast variety of venues… Passers-by… also donate to this fundraising project. We volunteer our help… The home always welcomes help from all… (and) can be reached at 04-2283319. I personally help the Home directly in supporting their scout troop and their activities… So if you are a scout and would love to help us out, you can reach me directly too“. Paul can be contacted via his Facebook profile page, which can be seen in our Facebook event page.
