Title: The Happy Angels Home Visits
Description: 3rd Aug


Aloy - July 17, 2007 02:24 PM (GMT)
The Happy Angels is a privately-funded, self-initiated group of volunteers who got together in August 2002 with an intention to reach out to the less fortunate people in our community.
The size of membership has grown over the years to the current 40 volunteers comprising of flight attendants, pilots, aircraft engineers and people from all walks of life.
More information at http://thehappyangels.blogspot.com/

On the 3rd of August, 2007, The Happy Angels will be visiting Renci Hospital (2 - 4 pm) and Asian Women's Welfare Association (5 - 7 pm) for food distribution and general visitation.
They are hoping that they can get a few magicians from SMC to join them in their visits to entertain the beneficiaries.

Date: 3 Aug
Time: 2 - 4pm or 5 - 7pm
Target Audience: Old folks and the disabled
Type: Walk around/Bed to Bed


I personally thought they are quite remarkable.
I understand they started as an informal group of SIA flight attendants wanting to do good and went on from there.
They have no formal backing whatsoever from any organisation, but have even managed to have a collaboration with a charitable group in Indonesia for an overseas project.
And the volunteers took personal leave and pay out of their own pockets for all expenses incurred. Nice. B)

So if anyone is available for these dates, do help them out in this.
Since this is not a very big event, 2 magicians for each slot should be sufficient.
So if you would like to volunteer for this one, please put your name down in this thread.
CIP points possible from Renci and AWWA respectively if you need them.

Enquiries can be emailed to Lindsay at lindsay_tan@hotmail.com or ask in here and I'll answer what I know.

I can do it...first slot, 2 - 4pm

Where do I need to be, and what is the attire?

So....

Raoul fell under the weather 1 day before the event and I ended up going for this one alone. :!!:

I did a little walk around magic with Happy Angels at AWWA after their dinner with the residents and ended with a short improvised parlour routine.
Turned out everyone had quite a lot of fun. The Happy Angels people were really friendly and I joined them for some supper after the event. B)

Max, who is a Happy Angels volunteer, was the photographer of the evening and he took some AMAZING photos which I thought I should share.
All photos in this event are taken by Max.

Check out the photos at our photo gallery.
