THE PURPLE PARADE 2016!

Saturday | 5th November 2016
The Purple Parade

You may or may not have heard of this parade, (though I only heard about it last year..oops) I finally found time to help out for the parade as a volunteer. This is the fourth year of them celebrating abilities and supporting inclusion for those with special needs. & yes, my very first time helping out in a relatively large scale event.

 As most of the booths were taken up with many volunteers, we then distributed flyers for the carnival events and maps.
 We also met a fellow volunteer whom is only 15 years old. So brave of her to put herself out there at such a young age. When I was 15, I was too busy studying in school. A note of advice to younger students in school, study smart & make time for things out of academics.

Even though we weren't much of a big help in the parade, all in all it truly was great to be part of the community in support for this great cause. 

To another Purple Parade in 2017!
