Leo Christmas Charity Bazaar

     On the 13th to 15th of December, PJI Leo Club organized a Christmas Charity Bazaar which is a joint Christmas project of SMK Assunta, SMK Taman Petaling and SMK Taman Sea. The aim for this project is to give the orphans a memorable Christmas. The head of the project was Leo Samantha from PJI and Assistant Head Leo Melvin.

     The three day bazaar was held at Tropicana City Mall (infront of Borders), 1 st floor. Leos started arriving at 8:30am to help set up the booth and blow balloons but the event officially started at 10am and ended at 10pm. We were divided to groups of seven consisting of Cashier, Gift wrapper , Stationary counter 1, Stationary counter 2, Clothes counter, Accessories counter and Runner.

     The stationary counter displayed a variety of goods suitable for children and adults alike. We sold clothes from branded stores such as H&M, 21 and Pixie all for a reasonable price. Most interestingly, we had a Secret Santa service where people have the liberty to choose a card from the Christmas tree consisting of an orphans name, age and gender. They then have to buy a gift for that lucky orphan. The gift wrappers wrapped the presents and they were put under the tree. It was a really good experience being part of this project as we inculcated good values such as determination, responsibility and perseverance. Everyone did their very best to come for their shifts and help out as much as they could and some even stayed the whole day! We would definitely cherish that very moment as we got to make new friends and we brought joy to a lot of kids.
