8/10/2007 - Paint for Peace Event
Last weekend, AFS-YES Alumni Malaysia organised the Paint for Peace event at One Utama Shopping Centre. The event was held in conjunction to the Peace Petition Drive and International Peace Day.
Over the 2 days event, AFS YES Alumni has collected 2753 signatures on online and paper. It was truly a memorable experience for the AFS YES Alumni members whom stayed up late at nights to organise this 2 days event.
Many people painted their palm and made their mark on the 40ft x 5ft banner, which will be presented to a UN representative during the World Peace Forum during the AFS 60th Anniversary.
Throughout the event, many activities were organised such as Coloring contest, Cultural Trivia, Students performances and many more. The event was sponsored by the AFS, AFS YES Alumni Sending Parents, Usaha Meriah Sdn Bhd, Wangi Forwarding & Shipping Sdn Bhd, Nippon Paint Sdn Bhd, Gillin Printers Sdn Bhd & Golf Joy Marketing Sdn Bhd.
