#TeamSengkang celebrated our Lunar New Year celebrations for
#SengkangGRC before the actual new year this time round, in part to launch our festivities a little early, and in part to align with our shopping trip for new year goodies and provisions. Kids enjoyed the various craft activities and games, and we even managed a little lo hei to usher in best wishes for the coming year.
Residents more than heeded the call for rice donations, resulting in a small mountain of rice bags. We will be pairing these with other donations, and distributing these to the needy in our town. Due to the overwhelming response, we will also continue the distributions over the course of the year, with our regular monthly food distribution to less-fortunate households.
Thanks for all who came by with contributions! It truly is in the spirit of giving and sharing for the season, and we’re glad to be able to do our part in making sure every family has the living essentials of 柴米油盐酱醋茶 (firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy, vinegar, tea).
Postscript: the three rabbits from the
#workersparty managed to pose briefly for perhaps an entirely justified rabbits’ ear shot (I was born in ‘76, but before the Chinese New Year, so I’m a 兔尾龙头 (“rabbit tail, dragon head”)-type deal. Being born on January 20 also puts me on the cusp for the Western zodiac, between Capricorn and Aquarius. So if you think I’ve multiple personalities, it may not be entirely a coincidence).
