Order a dish, grant a sick child's wish
WHO says giving to charity must involve signing a huge cheque or collecting newspapers from around an HDB estate? In the case of the Make-A-Wish Foundation®Singapore's Wish Dish campaign, charity can be done just by dining at one of the 30-odd participating restaurants in town.
For the current month, at least half of what you pay for selected dishes at these restaurants will go towards granting a child's wish through the Make-A-Wish Found-ation®Singapore. That means you contribute, say, $19++ for every $38++ bowl of stewed lobster noodle at Shang Palace in Shangri-La Hotel.
This is the second year that Make-A-Wish Foundation®Singapore is conducting this campaign, after exceeding its target last year when it raised more than $100,000 from 6,000 dishes. This year, its aim is to sell at least 10,000 "wish dishes".
