valentine's day

Instead of spending lots of money supporting this uber commercialised hallmark day, this year I decided to put all my effort into using this day to raise some much needed funds for the Starlight Foundation. I sought out a number of donations from such generous companies as Roses Only, managed to purchase some flowers at cost price... and then started the raffling. In all I raffled over 450 tickets, and raised $670 for the children of the Starlight Foundation.

For myself, the winner of the 40-rose bouquet gave me a single red rose, which now adorns my stationery holder. Hehe... I feel so good about doing something for the community....

Happy Valentine's Day for tomorrow...
