Fly away with Elphy for a good cause

NEED a luggage for your getaway this Chinese New Year? Why not do your part for charity while you're at it, and stop by Takashimaya Singapore to pick up one of their limited-edition trolley luggages.

Each of these 20-inch cabin trolley luggages is printed with an elephant design titled The Flying Elphy - an original artwork by local child artist Gelyn Ong - and they are priced at S$99 each. Eighty per cent of the net proceeds from sales will be split equally between The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund (STSPMF) and The Business Times Budding Artists Fund (BTBAF).

"I drew an elephant because I want to tell people to protect the rainforest," said 10-year-old Gelyn, who is also a WWF Young Ambassador for Singapore.
