Projek Cuci Kereta

As had been told, on Thursday, 10th September 09, we held a car wash project in our school. The project was held successfully with the support of teachers and also the help of our students. Many leo club members turned up that day to help around. Besides, the teachers were also more than happy to let their cars be washed by us in order to raise funds.

Our funds will be going to SPCA, which is a pet shelter for homeless animals. The funds will also be used to sponsor the Dettol Hand Sanitizers for the students whom are sitting for PMR in the examination hall. The photos that were taken that day are as follows:

To begin, this is how you should wash a car

Never give up no matter how dirty the car is

Put more soap la... XD

For hard to reach places, use a chair..

Or if you're tall, it wont be a problem... =D

Otherwise, just splash the whole car..

Peace~~ XD

Rub the windows carefully to make sure every spot is cleaned..

Hey, look.. I can see myself~ ^^

Eh.. Muscle training arh... XD

Vice president and president also must wash..

Must do alone~

Ah~~ Finally.... Clean cars to sleep on..

The satisfied teachers...

Er....? XD

...............

The day's work in cold, hard cash... lol.. which will be donated to charity.. =D

Overall, the project went successfully. We raised a total of RM 347++ and more to come... Special thanks to our teachers.. =)

Because of our successful project, the principal even asked us to do this as an annual project.. It's a really great thing for our leo club as this was our first time organizing a car wash event such as this. Hope that more members will participate next year when we have this again.. =D

Once again, thanks to all the members that help out during that day~ =)
