It’s Job Week For The Scouts!
As the Chief Scout of Singapore, President S. R. Nathan has officially launched the Scouts Job Week at the Istana. During the Job Week, scouts all throughout the island will knock on doors and offer to help homes, offices or businesses in exchange for donations. This year, they ‘re hoping to raise $600,000, equal to their target for last year.
According to Channel News Asia, the Scout of Singapore has about 10,000 members, so don’t be surprised if a number of them will come to your door and offer to help you with some housework! Make sure that you don’t send them away. This will not only give you a chance to exercise your generosity but it will also be an opportunity for you to help train some of tomorrow’s leaders. I’m sure that there has to be at least one thing in your house that needs dusting or cleaning so you’ll definitely find something for them to do.
