Mary Pearce and other women from the PILC
join with kids and Sister Joan from the Fountain of Life as they
complete the handmade Christmas crackers and cards in time for the PILC
Holiday bazaar held at the Holiday Inn this coming Sunday the 17th of
November. All proceeds from these items will go back to the Fountain of
Life.
Pattaya International Ladies Club’s annual Christmas
Bazaar, the club’s largest fundraising event of the year, is this
Sunday, Nov. 17, at the Holiday Inn on Beach Road in Pattaya.
“We have gone back to calling the event ‘PILC’s Christmas Bazaar’,” says
Helle. “We are asking all our vendors to make their stalls very festive
to promote the Christmas season. We’ll have a Santa’s Grotto and a
face-painting corner for the children, foot massages for the weary
shoppers, and a magician to entertain young and old alike. We anticipate
that more than 50 vendors will be in attendance, selling one-of-a-kind
items not found elsewhere.”
PILC has been in existence since the ‘70s, and has raised many millions
of baht through the Annual Bazaar and other spectacular fundraising
events, and they are hoping for a bumper fundraiser this year. “We have
already had wonderful support from existing and new sponsors, and we
thank them all very much for their support of PILC’s welfare work,” says
Anja Schoof-Hertroys, Special Events Chair for 2013 and in charge of the
overall arrangements for the Bazaar. “We also have many vendors signed
up, but we still have some tables available for last minute bookings!”
