UNICEF Direct Debit Donor Programme

Last Sunday ( 21 March ) I went out to tHe spring and I came across a group of people from UNICEF doing their roadshow of their donor programme. I was attracted as it is not cash type of donation. All this while I always think of how can I contribute to something or doing donation in long term without giving big cash one time (because I didn't have a lot of money at one time). So I approached them and they explained every detail of that donation programme. I was attracted because it is mainly to help children all over the world and I said sign me up. So I did.

This donation pledge is not an one-off donation like the usual because UNICEF didn't take any cash for this. It was an easy thing to do, their people will ask for you ID card and help you filled the form and then they have two option of donating, 1. using credit cards and 2. using bank account. And there're two type of contribution 1. every month RM38 or RM58 and 2. Every 6 month RM228 or RM348. Note that this contribution will be charged to your credit card or autodebit  from your bank account and you will be contributing for as long as you're signed up with this programme. UNICEF will give you a car sticker and stick it on your car to show your support. They will also send you a tax-exempt receipt every year.

This is a very very good things to contribute for something meaningful and helping the childrens around the world. We all know there are so many children suffers from poverty, wars, HIV and so on, even in our country there are so many children need help and through UNICEF, we might be able to give hopes to these children. For that small amount, we have surely giving some help to these children such as in medical and education. It not a big amount but the contribution it provides is enormous.  Personally, I felt many people should sign up to something like this. It's might not our children who benefited from this contribution but it gave them a very big, excellent example of what we should do to help other. All those children are the future generation of our world anyway.

The roadshow was over but if any of you are interested to know more details or to sign up and contribute to this donor pledge can contact Mr. Chan Huang Hua at 0168899667
