Small changemakes adifference
This is the third year that CrimsonLogic rolled out its “Small
Change Makes a Difference” programme, which aims to
promote giving back to the community through cultivating good
saving habits among the students. In July 2017, CrimsonLogic
supportedCCF for the first time to help createmore awareness
on theworks of CCF.
A coin bank, resembling a Lego brick, was handed out to each
student at six participating schools in Singapore. The students
were encouraged to save over a period of two months as a
donation toCCF. Theywerealsoallowed to keep the coinbanks
at theend of theprogramme to continue the habit of saving.
Separately, more than 400 employees in CrimsonLogic joined
the students in this saving programme. CrimsonLogic hopes
to support CCF in their mission to improve the quality of life
for children and families impacted by cancer through such
fundraising events. In total, CrimsonLogic together with the
students, helped raise $21,593.01 for CCF.
CCF and CrimsonLogic would like to thank the students and
teachers from Ang Mo Kio Primary School, Beatty Secondary
School, Seng Kang Primary School, St. Margaret’s Primary
School, Yishun Town Secondary School and Zheng Hua
PrimarySchool for their participation in this project!
