I hope to realize this initiative called P.A.R.K. Kindness Day some time next year, maybe on the first anniversary of P.A.R.K. (22 September 2014) or even earlier if we manage to gather enough support for this event. On P.A.R.K Kindness Day, I would like anyone who believes in P.A.R.K. to come together to make a (minimum) contribution of $1 to any charities or non-profit organizations supporting a good cause, of their choice. There are a number of ways to donate to charities, be it through Flag Day on the street or via the online donation portal, SG Gives, which supports up to 270 charities.
This is certainly a good way to show kindness to those who need our help most as every dollar donated can make a difference to the lives of the poor and needy. I hope that all our friends who believes in P.A.R.K. can come together and support this event together. I am sure that if you are reading this post, $1 doesn't really make much of a difference to you. However, if we have many friends contributing $1 each, say 1000 of us, we would have raised $1,000 for charity.
Lastly, I hope that those who have supported this event can PM me how much they donated and to which organization so that I can consolidate the total amount that P.A.R.K. Kindness Day has generated for the charities. Alternatively, they can post this piece of information on our Facebook Page. If this event is successful, we can have more of such initiatives in the future and we will keep adding to the previous total we have collected. I believe all our P.A.R.K. members would be really proud to have contributed to this amount in some way.
