Event Details

The Chinese believe that the goat is an auspicious sign which embodies good luck. KDF's charity icon for the year, ‘Auspicious Beginnings’, features three of these auspicious animals standing on top of a cliff, a symbol of courage and tenacity. The coins held in its mouth signify good fortune, while the pine at the back of the icon represents longevity and everlasting life.

At the annual Charity IconLaunching Ceremony and Appreciation Dinner held on 5th July at the Bliss Garden restaurant located at Singapore Expo, the KDF charity icon was officially launched by Member of Parliament, Ms Tin Pei Ling and KDF Chairman, Dr Gordon Ku.

Top donors of the evening include Mr Tan Ji Guang of Lao Zhong Zhong Five Spice Stall and Mr Tong Lee Songfrom Golden Pillow 933, who generously donated $10,000 and $9,330 respectively, while a very charitable Mrs Yeo contributed $9,000.
