SPONSORSHIP
We are looking for generous corporations for sponsorship as a part of your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Please feel free to email us at waterfallsurvivors@hotmail.com or contact Joe Yap at 019-6787460 for further details.
Waterfall Survivors together with 350.org and 1010.org aims to get communities participate in our local Save Our Waterfalls 101010 or put together actions in their own community by doing a little to contribute to Mother Nature and educate the public on the importance of preserving our natural environment for our future generations. The Save Our Waterfalls campaign by Waterfall Survivors is the society’s main project to instill civic consciousness amongst every individual. This will be the 4th SOW campaign organized by Waterfall Survivors.
What is a work party, anyway?
The concept of a work party derives from traditions of the minga in the Andes, the Sarvodaya movement of Sri Lanka, and the barn raisings of Amish people. All of these cultures have in common the idea of bringing their whole community together for a day of collective work, usually to complete a project that will benefit the whole community. These traditions are often typically followed by a fun event involving food and music to celebrate the
big accomplishment. For 10/10/10, we’re asking organizers to put on their own community to complete a sustainability project that will benefit our whole community, and help make carbon reduction tangible – and fun – for everyone! Visit www.350.org/
