Dear Swoppers,
First of all, thank you for those who came for our Swop held back in April! Just to let you know we collected $180 for the House Rabbit Society.
For those who are itching for another Swop, good news! There’s going to be a mega swop event happening this July! Hosted and organised by our friends at The Cathay, The Great Big Swop will benefit Beautiful People, which aims to teach important life skills and positive values to teenage girls (check out their website for more info).
The donation fee will be $10 this time round, but it’s still all going to a good cause 
Make sure you come early though, as The Cathay will be giving the first 100 participants a $10 voucher! Also, every participant will be eligible for lucky draws every half hour where you can stand a chance to win up to $1,500 worth of shopping vouchers. There’s going to be some exciting performances too. So make sure you stick around for the fun!
Here are the details:
Date: 9 July, Saturday
Time: 3.30pm to 6.30pm
Venue: The Cathay, 2 Handy Road. (External Atrium)
How it works: Bring $10 and at least 5 items in good condition.
Some important information:
- This particular swop will accept games, CDs, DVDs and books, as well as the usual clothes and accessories donations.
- What’s not accepted: jewelry or costume jewelry,underwear, illegal or pornographic goods, infant clothes, and perishables.
- You’ll get a chip for every item you donate, which you can exchange for another item you want to take home with you. Want to take home extra items but you don’t have enough chips? Not to worry, extra items will go for $5 each, and the money will go to charity too.
- Any remaining items at the end of the day will be donated to Salvation Army or other charities.
