The Brunei Times is inviting citizens and residents of Brunei Darussalam to take part in fundraiser “Tulong Mindanao Charity Auction and Bazaar” that will take place from 8am to 5pm on Sunday, April 8, 2012 at the Indoor Stadium, Berakas. Initiated by The Brunei Times, organised by Prismworks Event Management and supported by the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports (MCYS) and the Filipino Association in Brunei, the charity event for the benefit of Typhoon Washi victims in the Philippines will auction brand-new items donated by generous sponsors.

All proceeds of the fundraiser will be handed over to the National Humanitarian Fund for Philippine Storm Victims set up by the MCYS. Tulong Mindanao is the young news organisation’s response to His Majesty’s Government’s call for the people and residents of Brunei Darussalam to lend a helping hand in the rehabilitation and reconstruction of Philippine communities ravaged by Tropical Storm Washi.

The fundraiser is The Brunei Times’ first public charity event. The government through the ministry earlier set up the humanitarian fund following news of the tropical storm leaving 1,249 fatalities in its wake in December 2011. Typhoon Washi (Sendong) also displaced 600,000 people in Mindanao.

Fundraiser sponsors from the Brunei Darussalam business community have confirmed their donations for the auction ranging from RBA all inclusive Business-class tickets, household appliances such as television sets and air-conditioning units to vouchers for gym membership and hampers of skincare products.

Celebrity Wu Chun has also come on board to auction off 30-minutes of personal training time with him and a 30-minute one-on-one basketball session with him. Fitness Zone has also sponsored 10-one month Fitness Zone memberships for the auction. At the bazaar, pre-loved goods will be sold at affordable prices. Drop-off boxes have been placed at all Jollibee outlets in Brunei for the public to donate their pre-loved goods. Interested parties may make use of these boxes for their donations until April 5.

Organisers and supporters are putting together a fun-filled programme for the April 8 event, with activities for children and youth such as a Cosplayers parade, magic shows and bouncers. For your info, you can use the Jalan Kebangsaan through Pusat Dakwah to make your way to the Indoor Stadium as you know that the road closure for SCB's run tomorrow as well.
