When One Door Closes, Another Opens

We have been looking forward to participating in Pet World this year as an opportunity to raise some funds and we applied for the NGO booth. We were told to wait until the end of April. On the last day of April, we received an advertisement featuring the whole list of partners for Pet World and found that we have not been selected as one of their NGO partners. So, if you are hoping to buy our merchandise at Pet World, please be informed that we were not given a booth and will therefore, not be there.

However, when one door closes, another opens, as the saying goes.

We are extremely thankful to Setia Alam’s Sambodhi Buddhist Association (12, Jalan Setia Prima B U13/B, Setia Alam, 40170 Shah Alam) for inviting us to open a booth on Wesak Day at their centre, to raise funds and sell merchandise. So, if you live in Setia Alam and would like to purchase our merchandise, please do drop in on 21st May 2016, from 9am to 12noon.  The booth is on the road, so it will be very visible and easy to locate. Would anyone like to volunteer to help me on that day? I just need ONE volunteer as the crowd isn’t very big.

We are also extremely thankful to the Buddhist Maha Vihara at Brickfields (123, Jalan Berhala, Brickfields, 50470 Kuala Lumpur) for allowing us to open a booth at their premises (beside their canteen) on a Sunday, once in two months. We will have an opportunity to raise funds through our merchandise, from the temple devotees and other visitors. Our upcoming booth is on 15th May 2016, from 7am until 11am. Agnes Cheong will be helping me on that day. Please do drop in if you’d like to purchase any merchandise from us. You could also pre-order and come collect on that day, to save money on shipping charges. The Vihara is open to the public.

When one door closes, several smaller doors might open…(thank you!).

We would also like to thank those who responded to our appeal for their donations that came in this morning. And also to those who offered help in kind. This is all very touching and heartwarming. Thank you very much!
