Fund raised~

Hi! It’s time I blog about the recent happenings in the club again. I believe we all know the club has recently embarked on a journey of fund-raising. The club owes it to Leo Evan Yip! A round of applause for him!

Through this fund-raising project, I have personally witness a strong will and great sense of responsibility from him. Of course, the project also owes many who have helped out in making this project a success. Some who hide behind the curtains and make this success a success. Others, who helped out at the booth~

The event began with plans and then executed starting on Sunday evening, where all the ingredients are bought and brought to Leo Garry’s house for preparation. Cook Kenny, a.k.a. our club treasurer has been of great help by contributing his wonderful recipe of Herbal eggs! For those who have tasted it, knows how good it is. The event also owes to Leo Lina, who seeded the idea of selling sweet corn to raise fund! It was indeed among the highlights of fundraising! Idea without execution is of course nothing. Thanks to Leo Yeung Yung Lin, who was willing to arrange the cups, spoons and the wonderful steamer!

On top of that, the event also has to thank Leo Chee Fei for lending his super-big pots for the now famous ‘Lin Chi Kang’. So much said, the event cannot forget those who lend their car and effort to help bring all the stuffs from LEVEL 5 to the car and from the car to the University! These kind and hardworking people includes Leo Victor Yu, Leo Satish and Leo Shaun! THANKS!

What’s more, Leo Satish inadvertedly surprised everyone by baking 2 huge boxes of cupcakes for the club to raise fund. Not only the contribution of forking out money to bake the cupcakes, but the effort. The effort really touched some of us in the club. Leo Joeanne, expressed her gratitude as the Tropicana Leader.

Morever, fellow Leos who also helped in the planning and executing the plan like Leo Jack Seow, and Leo Fong Boon Hoe, who are there every time help is needed. Not forget to mention those not from Tropicana, Leo June Lim, Leo Carolyn who are there almost every day to assist organizing chairperson in making this event a success. Still, there are many names to mention. Our club is blessed to have the twin sisters who helped at the booth without sign of tiredness; Leo Yi Peng & Yi Mei.

From the event, I myself have seen the many will. Some strong, some weak. But in all, we have come thru it together. It’s for the society. A club with over 70 members should have 70 over participations. But, in the light of the event, we see the revelation of what was once shared by Lion Nelson. In a club, we have 3 kinds of members.

1. The ones who actively partake in the ENTIRE event.

2. The kind who wait and see this happen.

3. The kind who DON’T even know what is going on.

Type 2 and 3, don't lose hope. You chance and turn will come. Just strive to be type 1 any time in the near future! We all will be given the chance to SERVE~

Not forgetting the event managed to raise RM 400 within 4 days. Though not a huge amount, but it was a learning experience. I bear witness to the growth of a man. In times of hardship is when we see the true faces of many. Let’s continue to be UNITED and SERVE!!! Leo Club of Monash University. ROAR!~ ROAR!~ ROAR!~
