In this lovable month of February, we had organized a charity event on the romantic week of the year at KDU SQUARE. We carried out 5 different projects on that week and were the Valentines Charity Auction, Love Potion, Cupid Magic Beans, Valentines Roses and Wishing Tree. We started off with the Love Potion and Cupid Magic Beans (Cupid Magic Beans are red beans with words laser on them).
Before the week of Valentines, we had to make preparations where it was held in a beautiful Saturday morning where most of them had to sacrifice their Saturday to wake up early to help. Each member were given different task where some helped to prepare the Cupid Magic Beans, some help to do the cutting and drawing of the love shape. The sewing of the Valentine Roses was one of the most difficult task.
The preparation was a good starting for the members because the Valentine project is our 1st project working and cooperating together. The preparation ended about 6 pm where most of the task had been accomplish.The Auction
Other than just selling roses and drinks, we have tried something new for a chance: auctioning bachelor students and lectures of SHTCA. Our beloved mother Wong was one of the participants. The auction got the best respons amongst our Valentine project and was held for 2 days. The auction was held about 12 pm - 2 pm at the KDU SQUARE. During the 2 days, the cafeteria was crowed with many students of KDU and the respons towards the auction was good, where student from other Courses help to rise the fund. Some of our SALE has reaches the amount that we didn't experted.
The Valentine week was a very sucessful and the responds toward it was unimaginable where students helped to rise funds to aid others who needed help. This project is very meaningful for the members of Grapevine because is our 1st task working togather as a team and we had accomplish it togather.
