Go Go Power DELTA

When Delta was asked to write a blog post about our PIWP, we were certainly lost for words as the experience we had was so overwhelming that it is hard to describe in words alone.

Our first PIWP meeting was held to discuss who, what and when of our soon to be project. Our project manager Leong came up with several ideas and there was sure number of suggestions from all of us. The sea horses were too demanding for our time constrained schedules, the forest did not have a time slot for us to do a cleanup and the sea turtles definitely do not seem to be a good choice. Since, aquatic creatures have no fate with us; we decided to bring some joy to Furry Friends Farm! Having decided where to put our Delta power to use, we move on to the next plan which is to fundraise.

Delta’s First Meeting in Megamall

In order to fundraise, we decided to sell food and drinks in various colleges and also to ask for donation of cash and kinds from animal lovers. Our awesome project leader Leong, managed to get the famous ‘ice kacang’ shop from Kepong to sell their ice kacang at cost price. Not just that, Shi Han managed to find an obscure bread shop in Salak South that makes one of the best chicken floss buns at a very reasonable price.

Day 2 and 3 – SEGi College Subang Jaya
The second day of selling foods and drinks was in SEGi College Subang Jaya. We decided to sell bubble tea and buns this time around. The experience we gain from this was fun, fun and more fun. Who knew that making bubble tea could be that much fun! We decided to lend our hands to make bubble tea for fundraising next time. Any takers?

The Day – A visit to Furry Friends Farm
The first thought that came to mind when Delta told the participants we were going to visit the animal farm was ‘we are just going there to clean the place up, bath the cats and dogs, and feed them’. How hard could it be? In our happy little heads, we were excited and all ready to go. Upon reaching there, what we foresighted was nowhere to be seen. We were all greeted by our furry friends and Sabrina the owner who wasted no time to delegate the tasks to the volunteers. The ‘tasks’ were no easy feat as some of the Raleigh members term it ‘mini expedition’. We were required to dig 12 holes to put up a fence and roll heavy concrete rings to create a park for our four legged canine friends to play in.

Our furry friends numbered at 100++

this is what that made us persistent in accomplishing our task

13 holes dug, 100 over dogs fed, a cleaner cats’ house, a lakeside park created, a spick and span dog living area, a tidy kitchen and a shed fuller with dog food. Team Delta made it out alive with the help of all the volunteers that came along and celebrated Siqin’s 21st Birthday!

Team Delta would like to thank all those involved from the planning of their project, the support given during fundraising and the blessed souls who came to volunteer in Furry Friends Farm. This will be one experience we will remember forever. Go Go Power Delta!

Thank You from Team Delta!
