.10 to charity
By Felix Ker on September 25, 2007

I’m turning 19 in a week’s time or so. Still young I know.

I must say that I’m very lucky as compared to many people in the world. I get what I wish for and often time I get to do what I want to do.

Charity!

For this year’s birthday, I’m going to do something different. Instead of me receiving presents, I’m going to donate money to charity. And the amount I will donate all depends on you.

Tell me more!

Simple. As on title, for every comment posted here, I will donate $0.10 to charity. The donation will not be done live (not as you comment) though. I will send the amount to charity at the end of this event.

Which charity organisation?

I’ve got a few in mind. Such as SPCA (Singapore/Malaysia).  

Are there any charity organisations available in Malaysia or Singapore that I can help? If you’re going to request that I donate to any particular (registered) organisation, do mention in your comment. I will read each and every comment.

What if you lie?

If you’re afraid I will cheat (cheat myself?), close the window and ignore this post. Why would I want bad karma? =)

How can I play a part?

  1. Add your comment. (Just say hello is fine.)
  2. Tell your friends.

Rules

For every game/event, there will be a set of rules you must follow.

  1. Each person is only allowed to comment once. Don’t spam/cheat.
  2. This event ends on 4th October 2007, 11.55pm (GMT+8)

For now, I can only think of two rules.

Now, rule(s) for myself.

  1. I must donate more than (number of comments * $0.10).

    Happy birthday in advance! I think what you’re doing is a great thing. I found your post from Vandelay Design and I definitely thought I should leave a comment. Another ten cents for charity! You’ve definitely inspired me and I might try something like this in the future. Thanks. :)

    Hey! I definitely support this. But i heard SPCA puts to sleep animals that aren’t able to be adopted within a certain time period. Don’t know if its true though.

  6. karen says:

    Thats a pretty nice thing you’re doing. Happy birthday in advance too.

    PS: I like animals but i’ve worked with people from the SPCA in my secondary school days and surprisingly they are extremely unpleasant. But i guess they do need the money. Someone mentioned Cancer Foundation. Anyway, I think it does not matter which beneficiary you are donating to. A good deed is a good deed.
