Taiwan Buddhist Tzu Chi Charity Sales 13 March 2011







The gloomy sky with endless rain pouring down did not deter these volunteers turning up for a good cause. By 7 am, the place was packed with stall holders and patrons. This is the first year that Lions Club of Kuching City participated in the annual Taiwan Buddhist Tzu Chi Charity sales, under the leadership of OC and Incoming President Vincent Tan. Our stall sold various food items such as vegetarian Nasi Lemak , vegetarian fried beehoon, vegetarian banana muffins, banana chips, nyonya kueh, vegetarian poh pia, fresh fruits like apples, oranges and bananas and lastly jellies.The support was overwhelming and the club raised around RM1530.

It was heartening to see many patrons coming to the sales with reusable bags and containers with the aim to support the Association's on going activity of recycling and promoting a green environment.

Members who participated were Incoming President Vincent Tan, PP Dora Lam, PP Teresa Wu, Lion Irene Tan and PP Sheila Kho. Lion Alice Kon donated the jellies.
