Please remember, although we’re going to have a lot of fun this weekend, there is a serious message behind this event:
One child dies every three seconds from extreme poverty…that’s 28,800 during the course of this event.
The very sad thing, though, is that these deaths are completely avoidable.
If you agree that something should be done to change this situation for the better, please consider joining ONE (SINGAPORE) as a member and help to spread the message throughout Singapore.
One by One…by One, we can Make Poverty History…
With utmost gratitude.
