KARANG GUNI COLLECTION
The committee and some of the Orion Alumni have gathered on 22nd September, 2014, at Yew Tee District to collect recyclables, such as newspapers and old clothes, as part of our fundraising efforts.
This is just a small fraction of what we have collected that day!
We managed to collect literally truck-loads of recyclables, despite having limited manpower. Here is a photo of some of us getting a chance to rest at the back of the newspaper-loaded lorry, after a long day of door-to-door collection!
It sure was an exhausting day, but it was also very fulfilling as all our efforts translated into a huge accomplishment.
Hence, to raise more funds for our Overseas Community Involvement Program (OCIP), we are organizing another Karang Guni Collection Day on 7th December, 2014!!!
We would be revisiting the welcoming Yew Tee district to do door-to-door collection of recyclables from the residents; and this time round, we are hoping to reach out to more volunteers to assist us in the collection and classification of recyclables. Volunteer recruitment will be extended to the overall school community! CIP hours will be awarded.
Below is a summary of the event:
Event: Karang Guni Collection Day
