The MILK (Mainly I Love Kids) Charity Dinner is an annual event to raise funds for disabled, disadvantaged and chronically-ill children from low-income families. The dinner marks an important time of the year for us as it is both a fund-raising event as well as an opportunity for us to thank our supporters and partners. This year, MILK needs to raise a total of $5.9 million to help 16,000 children.

The MILK Dinner will be held on 18 October 2007 at the Shangri-La Hotel Singapore Island Ballroom and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong has kindly agreed to be our Guest-of-Honour.

We are also working closely with Sincere Watch Limited who have undertaken the task of organising a very special dinner event with the glamour, excitement and panche that they are known for. This will include a limited edition timepiece to be auctioned off for MILK.

In keeping with our principles at MILK, 100% of the funds we raise will go directly to the programmes we support for the disadvantaged kids, to help us achieve this, The Shangri-la Hotel Singapore will be sponsoring the dinner that evening.

We look forward to another lovely evening!

MILK Dinner 2006

The year 2006 has been an exciting one for MILK and has seen our reach growing from 4,000 to 6,000 disadvantaged children. The dinner marks an important time of the year for us as it is both a fund-raising event as well as an opportunity for us to thank our supporters and partners. In 2006, we worked working closely with Bulgari who organized their first charity jewellery and watch auction in Singapore and committed their profits from their day & dinner auction to MILK.

A total of $1,493,070 (the audited financial statement for the event can be found HERE) was raised from the Bulgari Charity Auction-MILK Dinner held on 4 December 2006, by far our most successful Dinner in terms of funds raised. The dinner was sponsored by Shangri-La Hotel and President SR Nathan was our Guest-of-Honour for the evening. In keeping with our principles at MILK, 100% of the funds we raise will go directly to the programmes we support for the disadvantaged kids. We thank all our supporters on behalf of the kids under our care for an enjoyable evening.
