    Thanks Kevin and Underwater for your support on this thread.

    As i mentioned earlier, this thread was started to garner awareness from reefers on this upcoming charitable car wash event and we do hope, like Kevin had mentioned, ppl who happened to be nearby to pop by and support this cause.

    Its not abt being selfless or noble, but it is about giving without expecting anything in return :)

    Anway, we all have our own perception about overseas comm service and it is not up to me to change that. My personal belief is that as long as i am benefitting at least 1 person (whether with the team im working with or with the beneficiaries) with what i am doing, i am satisfied :) If i get a smile, it is a bonus.

    For those who had taken note of the event and intending to support this cause via carwash or donation, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and on behalf of the beneficiaries.

    I also concur that those who need a car wash and happen to be nearby lose nothing by detouring over and contribute to the fund raising activity. I might have done so if you are around my area (bukit timah) and I needed a car wash. It would please me more if I know that the $10 is to buy my needy neighbor a text book for his schooling child for the new school term. On top of that, I can see his appreciating smile and immediate effects of my kind deed. This is the same satisfaction and fulfillment you seek isn't it? I want that kind of satisfaction when I donate.(assuming i am in a charitable mood). I don't think that will happen if I donate to a faraway cause.

    Wishing you all the best in your fund raising activities is all I am willing to offer at this juncture of my life.

    Thanks for your wishes. I do hope that it is a success as well.

    As for the statement of obtaining satisfaction and fulfillment like you had mentioned, to see the appreciating smile and immediate effects of the kind deed, just a thot, wouldnt it be that you have to literally help out in purchasing, distributing the textbooks to the needy neighbour in order to obtain that sort of immediate satisfaction? If not, wouldnt it be that you are donating out of good faith (assuming that you are in a charitable mood) that the money goes to buying textbooks or anything of that sort?

    i'm just as fallible as most of the ppl out there. Depends on moods to do donations, like dropping a couple of coins for a flag. I am selective like you, to give to organisation that i feel the money can go to them and give out of good faith that the meagre amt that i give, can aid in whatever ways the money can best be used.

    I respect your decision and your views on how you wanna donate your money.

    FYI, Paya Lebar Kovan CC also adopt society of the aged and sick as their local project and we always welcome donations and volunteers to help out.

    My stand is this:

    ALOT more should be done for needy Singaporeans before we think about contributing to neighbouring countries. And during this period of recession, this sense of priority should be more focussed then ever before. To illustrate my point and bring focus to my argument, i give you an example.

    Hypothetical scenario:

    You guys have been extremely successful in this car wash fund raising activity. Due to the success, the event gets some publicity and the amount raised is mentioned in the papers. An elderly ah pek who has no dependents and living from hand to mouth chance upon the article. Another middle age women who just lost her husband(critical illness) found new responsibilities in raising her 3 kids single handedly read it too. It does not take very much to guess what their thoughts would be. "Why wasn't i the beneficiary to the donations? Why try to put out a distant fire when i am drowning right in front of you?

    as per your hypothetical scenario,

    may i point out that for every charity fund raising event, there is always a target beneficiary. I'm sure that should they (the examples mentioned above) need help in any form, there are avenues which they can turn to for help. They can always approach the MPs for help and be directed to the correct organistations for assistance.

    the very reason as in why i would like to clarify the stance of the cause, was due to the impression that i did obtain from your posts that we did not show concern for our fellow countrymen and yet focus on overseas causes instead, which is not the case.

    i applaud you for worrying abt the needy in our own homeland and that we should concentrate our efforts to help our fellow countrymen instead. But i do reassure you that such events are being planned. As for the statement of ur claim of one wkend of collection to tide them over the entire recession, i find that is really far fetch. Both of us realised that one wkend of food collection is not gonna be enuff to last those needy like homes etc the entire recession. yet most volunteers, i do believe, adopt the mindset that every little bit helps. While we would like to reach out to as many as possible to kindly donate, we are also limited by the amount of volunteers and the area we can reach out to as well as fellow countrymen's generosity. Would you like to support the event and make a donation to help our fellow needy countrymen or volunteer your services?

    Whatever camps of thots we might belong to, our intentions are the same, to help to needy. My purpose was to broadcast this event and attempt to reach out to as many reefers as possible and seek their support for a good cause, where they, instead of manually washing their cars during the weekend and decided to go to a car wash in a petrol kiosk, why not just pop by and let us do the job for you. U still get ur car wash and the money that you given out, is for the services rendered. It is just that, in this case, the money earned, will be used to lighten the load of the poor in Cambodia. The way i see it, it is a win win situation

    I am puzzled why so many fund raising activities are not aimed at helping our countrymen. In fact, since recession is at our doorstep, the money can go a long way helping the jobless and needy. Look at it this way, poverty in our country will directly have adverse effects in terms of rising crime. If the cambodians are starving, we are not directly affected.

    I believe in giving, but my principle is to give only when i am having surplus and providing very well for my family. Likewise, we should help our neighbours, but only when we are absolutely sure our countrymen's interests are given top priority. Why raise funds to build schools in China when we could have bought the school books for the needy in Singapore?

    My opinion is this. Raising funds for any other interests other than our own countrymen should be left to the government/politicians who wish to score points and build foreign relationships. Community centres or town councils should aim their efforts in improving the lives of the their constituency.

    i really mean no harm but just sharing my thoughts. All the best to your fund raising activities. It is after all a selfless and noble act.

    Kevin

    Hi Kevin,

    FYI, i do not belong under Paya Lebar Kovan Constituency but it does not stop me from helping out and even if the constituency does improve the lives of the residents, i wont benefit from it.

    I decided to help coz i think it is meaningful and helping other people regardless of race or nationality and i'm pretty sure those volunteers and humanitarian teams that are going down to Cambodia to do the distribution and attempt to bring a better life to the poor, regardless of the fact that it might be just briefly, do not want any sort of recognition or acknowledgement. Whatever hidden agenda or interests etc that the govt/politicians had to score points like you had mentioned, is their choice. It is an issue of going beyond oneself. I'm not saying that i'm noble and i do too, have my commitments. It is just a little sacrifice that the teams and i do, in our limited abilities to help others and the reward that we get is when we see the receipent smile.

    While you do not mean any harm, i do, and i'm sure if i were to show your comments to other charitiable organisation that are raising funds, take offence in your choice of words and your thoughts. Like you mentioned, during such times of recession, we should be helping our countrymen by attempting to raise funds to help the poor. In the event that you might be interested to know, activities had been planned to help our countrymen as well. In fact, we are collecting can food next sunday for distribution to needy families in the constituency. Would u like to help your fellow countrymen by donating some foodstuff to the cause and walk the talk, rather than just merely saying that you are just sharing your thoughts?

    It is easy to sit behind a PC and be a keyboard warlord and pretend that nothing happens after ending such a reply with a sharing of thoughts statement. Because of your statement, it might have put ppl off coming to participate in this event. It is ok coz at the end, we get to wash less cars and earn less and we go back less tired. However, it only equates that we have less budget to cater to the needy. Its just as simple as that. As such, in threads like this, in any other forums, your statement is really uncalled for and i find it irresponsible to some extend.

    Also, do not equate poverty with crime. Crime happens in all levels of society. It is very stereotyping to stay that poverty results in rising crime. I have seen many families who are poor but live a much happier life than many of us for the very reason, they are contented with what they have. If like you had mentioned, poverty results in rising crime, then perhaps i can stereotypely, as you had done, say that it is all due to greed.

    Anyway, as you might have known by now, while we are separated by geographical segregation, like it or not, the way i see it, we (regardless of nationality) are intertwined as one race. We do not live alone in this world or become so entrenched in our own society that we failed to realise what is happening to the world and be less sensitive abt it.

    In terms of giving like you had mentioned, it is absolutely not wrong to say that u give only the surplus and i'm not saying that you have to donate till the fact that you cannot feed the family. It is, just a charity car wash event, which, in the event should you own a car, and instead of manually washing your car during the weekend and decided to go to a car wash in a petrol kiosk, why not just pop by and let us do the job for you. U still get ur car wash and the money that you given out, is for the services rendered. It is just that, in this case, the money earned, will be used to lighten the load of the poor in Cambodia. The way i see it, it is a win win situation and fyi, everything is accounted and audited.
