recycle your hair

Five

Day number 5 … The volunteers have been checking the vote count as and when they are ~~happy~~ anxious. Still far behind.

They had been asking people to vote, but people may not really know what they really do. Yet again, another couple of months back (like there are 24 months this year) crews from Mediacorp Chinese News were seen with them. And then… they appeared on a television programme on Channel U.

The show, World This Week, did a brief segment on what this group is all about, you can watch it over at the link below.

But then, still no sponsor.

Vote for them, though they cannot be your voice in the parliament, they can help those in need too.

Voting ends 27 Dec 2017 (10 am)

Day 3

Day 3 of the voting period and it seems like the story of these volunteers are lagging behind. The volunteers are still working hard to get more people to vote for their story.

Did you know?

The project that these volunteers are running is self-funded. They do not have any big organisations or companies to support them. The only support from the government, indirectly, is maybe the GST voucher given to the volunteers and it’s not a big sum.

See these ponytails?

They are waiting to be recycled into wigs for our cancer patients, and they do not need pay a single dollar (not even a cent), it’s all fully sponsored for by these volunteers, their friends and colleagues… and volunteers and their friends again… and their friends again … until may they are broke?

So, vote for them before it’s too late. Voting ends 27 Dec 2017 (10 am)

Once upon a time

Once upon a time, In a little red dot on a map, there is a volunteer group, collecting donated hair and recycle them into wigs for cancer patients free of charge.

Then came a fairy godmother group of good people and said to these volunteers; 'Hey! We could help you.'

And soon, the story of these volunteers were made known to many.

However, these volunteers are still struggling to keep up with the demand of wigs due to the lack of fund.

Then, the group of good people appeared again from nowhere and said to these volunteers; 'We may be able to help, but you will need to gather as many people as possible to vote.'

'Vote?' asked a volunteer.

'Yes', said the group of good people, 'to vote for your story. The story with the most votes get the S$5,000 prize to jump-start your work in 2017. Just direct your voters to this link (www.ourbetterworld.org/en/good-story-of-the-year/2016).'

Feeling excited, the volunteers are now working hard to garner as many votes as possible between 14 Dec - 27 Dec.
