Wee Care’s Fundraising Event for Children in Need and A Mother’s Wish for Autistic Individuals

Wee Care’s Fundraising Event for Children in Need and A Mother’s Wish

We are pleased to announce the participation of A Mother’s Wish Pte. Ltd. (AMW) in Wee Care’s annual fundraising event to raise funds for AMW and additional funds for their charitable organisations through a silent auction.

Please see the attached poster for information on how you can attend and support Wee Care’s key fundraising event (“Storytelling Beyond Walls 2014”, Oct 25 & 26) for four charitable organisations that help children in need.

AMW is a social enterprise dedicated to subsidising and running holiday programmes (http://www.awakeningminds.sg/amw/holiday_activities.html) for individuals with autism (particularly those in the moderate-severe range). It is our dream to create a community that provides programmes all-year-round.

At the “Storytelling Beyond Walls 2014” event, you will get a chance to bid for 25 water colour paintings produced by Sebastien, my 18-year-old autistic son (please contact me to get the Powerpoint presentation of the paintings, price range: $120-$400), starting from 4 p.m. on both days. If there are any other pieces from his works (http://www.awakeningminds.sg/sebs_raw_art.html) that you would prefer to be included in this selection, do let us know ahead of time and I can bring it on the day.

A paper will be placed next to each painting, with the minimum sales price, for you to write down your bid. Any amount above the minimum sales price will go towards Wee Care’s beneficiaries.

Please note that 30% of the minimum sales price will go towards AMW fund, with the remaining 70% of the sales going towards Sebastien, the artist with autism, for his challenging future. 

At the end of Wee Care’s performance, we will be announcing the winners of the bids for the paintings. Please contact me for the images of the paintings ahead of time for your perusal so that you would be able to make cash payments on the day.
