The Christmas Fund Bake 2015 project was a big thing for me not just because we collaborated with Taylor’s University, but because we managed to invite Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun to grace the event.
We had a lot of surprising media coverage who came unexpected from the likes of Sin Chiew Daily and even the Sun, also in Astro and TV3.
Because we were short staffed, I did not manage to capture exactly everything that happened on that day nor the many big people who came.
The event was for Simply Cookies, a social enterprise which helps single mothers by hiring them and giving a percentage of each cookie sold to them as salary.
The event was an awareness campaign to let more people know of the company and the situation the single mothers are in as well as Simply Cookie’s role in helping them.
With the YB Senator Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun’s support, we managed to pull off the event and gain the visibility the company needed to get a boost in their operations.
This was us and waiting for the Datin’s arrival at the famous Taylor’s roundabout.

Welcoming the Datin.
Everyone even the Taylor’s board escorted the Datin. Amazing what power can do to a person.
The VIP room we set up at Taylor’s Uni was the Truffles Restaurant where they have a fancy lounge 🙂

Our event came out in Sin Chew daily!
And also the Sarawak Tribune!
Not to mention the Malaysian Insider! But I couldn’t link to the page though because the website went down.
There are of course more pictures but its much better if I stop here lest I would end up uploading hundreds of them here.
It’s a habit for us to share a snippet of what our events are like and I hope you enjoyed reading this.
Thank you and have a good day!
