Ever since I become a father of two beautiful girls, I have grown a soft spot in my heart for kids, especially those not so fortunate kids.

The deal is simple - I will shave my hair (going bald) and grow a beard (well, doing my best) from 1 Oct 2018 to 30 Nov 2018 to foundraise money for Kidscan. My target is $1,000. This would be roughly about 50 pairs of shoes. 50 pair of shoes that could put smiles on those kids' faces, enable them to participate in those school activities that they would otherwise not being able to attend and could potentially make a huge positive impact in their social life.

Thank you in advance my dear family members, friends and colleagues! Together, we can make a difference!

Thank you! Goal achieved!  9 December 2018

A big thank you to all my generous donors! We have done it! We have exceeded the goal and it's great news to those kids we are helping! It hasn't been easy for me especially towards the end of the journey - first time growing the goatee and having a clean shaved bald head all the time was definitely "high maintenance". But it's all worthwhile and now I can wait to shave the goatee off and claiming my 10 years of age back! Thank you all again for your support, I really appreciate it!
