TRAC Seniors raise funds for MCS project
DECEMBER 3, 2010 was a special day for our TRAC Seniors when they showcased their talents, together with friends, at a charity concert, “Soiree Musicale”.
The objective was to do their part in helping to raise funds for the poor and needy in Singapore, through the Community Outreach Project, which was organised in conjunction with the 125th Anniversary of The Methodist Church in Singapore, celebrated throughout last year.
Jointly organised by Cairnhill Methodist Church and the TRAC Board of Seniors Ministry, it was held at Tang Choon Keng Performing Arts Hall, Anglo-Chinese School (Junior) and raised more than $7,000.
The amount raised was not much, but the bonding and cooperation of the participants in giving of their best made it all worthwhile, said a spokesman.
She added: “It was encouraging to see them come together and give their time and effort for a worthy cause. They practised very hard to ensure that the concert would be a success.”
