Reaching Out For Lives

A warm hello from all of us at Project FLIP and to all Malaysians, Salam Satu Malaysia.

Firstly, on behalf of Project FLIP, we want to sincerely apologise for going MIA over the last couple of months. We were focused on our university commitments and now that we're on a semester break, we're back in action !

Before providing an update on Project FLIP's next event, we want to take this opportunity to reiterate why we're doing what we're doing and our cause for us organising these fund-raising events. The main purpose of us coming together as a group is to help you help others. Every day we are exposed with news from the media of catastrophic natural disasters taking away lives, children living in dire conditions and deadly diseases affecting people as a result of these disasters and we realize that there are always people who are not as fortunate and are in desperate need of a helping hand. Although media attention on natural disasters that have occurred over the last year or so have lessened, these people who have been affected still very much need our help. It is important to understand that it is often the poor who suffer the most from these disasters losing all sources of income and the roof on top of their heads. Project FLIP members are committed to try to raise funds for these people without taking a single cent of any profit made.

That being said, Project FLIP is proud to announce that our second event is in the works and we have a confirmed venue and date for the next event. We will be needing a handful of volunteers for this event and we guarantee a good time for all volunteers working for this event. If anyone is interested, do contact any one of the members of the FLIP team as listed in this blog.

As for now, the basic details of the coming event is available on our facebook page and full details will be released in the coming week or so once we nail down a few minor issues. On a final note, we thank you for your patience with us and we hope you're looking forward to our next event because we definitely are!
