Boys Brigade

Earlier today at church, the Boys Brigade performed a song for the congregation. They were singing with such conviction and enthusiasm. Part of the big group of young boys who performed.

It is the 2nd service for the day. At the earlier service they had the BB/GB Enrollment Service 2008.



These young ones will be the leaders of our future. Anyone from the Boys Brigade or Girls Brigade?

Boys' Brigade Sharity Gift Box.

This is also spotted along Orchard Road this week. It's the Annual Boys' Brigade Sharity Gift Box.



So, what is this?

An excerpt from their website at www.bbsgb.org.sg explains it all.

-------------

For 20 years, The Boys’ Brigade has been seeking to bring cheer to the less fortunate by collecting food items and fulfilling Christmas wishes of the beneficiaries through The Boys’ Brigade Sharity Gift Box. These gift items reach out to more than 180 Voluntary Welfare Organisations and 3,000 individuals under the Public Assistance Scheme.

This project is all about YOU! You can make someone’s wish come true this Christmas!

This is a unique project as donors are encouraged to go beyond purely financial giving and are instead challenged to make the extra effort to buy gifts for the less privileged in our society.

Local Broadcaster ChannelNewsAsia also have an recent write up about it here.


So, for yourself personally, do you often help or give to the underprivileged?

For the locals reading this, if I am not mistaken, you can go to any of the Fairprice Supermarkets and they have this box manned by the Boys' Brigade where you can buy stuff and pass it to them.
