Charity Bazaar Marks Wildlife Reserves Singapore Conservation Fund’s Inaugural Fund Raiser

Celebrate World Animal Day with a mammoth dose of magic, music and merriment at Wildlife Reserves Singapore Conservation Fund’s (WRSCF’s) first-ever fundraising charity bazaar! This two-day affair will be held on 3 and 4 October, at Jurong Bird Park and Singapore Zoo respectively.

At Singapore Zoo, celebrity WRSCF Ambassadors, Gurmit Singh and Kym Ng, will auction off some of their personal items for charity. Shop from a selection of booths and do your part to contribute towards saving Singapore’s native endangered animals. Get your face painted, listen to lively band performances and even recycle your phones (Nokia will even donate US$2 towards the fund for every phone you bring in!).

    I had no idea that there is an international animal day. I’m glad to see there are persons that still care about them. And by the way, the first two paragraphs are duplicated in the text.
