Stand Up '08 Launch @ Indochine
Wednesday, July 9, 2008/ 3:42 PM
Went to Indochine yesterday to help out with the launch of Stand Up '08 which is part of ONE(Singapore)'s initiative to create awareness about the Stand Up event this coming October (: For those who don't know about Stand Up, Stand Up 2008 is a global initiative organised by the United Nations Millennium Campaign in collaboration with the Global Call to Action Against Poverty. On 17 October 2007 – International Day for the Eradication of Poverty -- 43.7 million people from 127 countries, including Singapore, "stood up" to call for a world without poverty and to remind global leaders of their commitments to the Millennium Development Goals.
The event was a Celebrity Kickoff kindof thing so after we helped out with the registration we totally went to spamming photos with the celebs for fun (:  The whole lot of us with Sheikh Haikal, Vernetta Lopez who's also the president of ONE Singapore, Nadya Hutagalung and her husband Desmond Koh. Totally wouldn't have missed out on this event for hours of mugging. For more information about how to help launch Stand Up events in your school or your community, do visit the ONE(Singapore) website. Labels: Events |
