You won't get it on the internet. Some years back they wanted to sue a whole load of people for defamation due to some email circulating about their nice office furniture etc. It was on the papers.
Anyway, when my friend was working for them, she told me that as an employee, she won't even donate to their cause. Really makes me wonder. -
We need a Daily Mirror-style expose to rake the dirt on the NKF. Unfortunately, Singapore's media have their hands tied.

how's this:
from their own site, no less... -

What is more sad is the fact that Government is not even going to consider aiding SPCA. Very very sad...all the money goes to Sentosa.Originally posted by aiyo!:M©+square: Ya! Very true!! I bet you'd visited them b4 to say that.. They'd at least need a bigger space to keep more animals!!

NKFS holds Spiderman 2 Gala Premiere
In support of NKFS ChildrenÂ’s Medical Fund, the Spiderman 2 Gala Premiere was held on 26 June 2004 at Cathay Cinemas, Orchard Road. The event was graced by Mrs Goh Cheok Tong, patron of the NKFS, accompanied by Mediacorp artistes, NKFS patients, distinguished guests as well as kids and teen donors of the CMF. The movie was presented by Columbia TriStar Films. The sudden appearance of Spiderman delighted the guests and patients. They were thrilled to be one of the first to catch the movie in Singapore.
The Incredibles Gala Premiere - An Incredible Treat For Our Young Supporters
NKFS treated a number of privileged individuals to an exclusive premiere of Disney/PixarÂ’s The Incredibles on November 6, 2004. This was a good two weeks before the actual release of the much-awaited animation film in local cinemas.
Organised by NKFS and Buena Vista Columbia TriStar Films, the gala premiere was held in appreciation of supporters and beneficiaries of the NKF ChildrenÂ’s Medical Fund (CMF).
The event was graced by Mrs Goh Chok Tong, patron of the NKFS, and attended by various MediaCorp artistes like Pan Lingling, Edmund Chen, Ivy Lee along with their families. The finalists of ‘Singapore Idols’ were also invited for the movie screening and arrangements were made for a brief autograph session outside the Cathay Cineleisure building. -
elindra,Originally posted by elindra:I never donate to NKF. I don't like the way they get donations. I mean even if the prizes are sponsored, wouldn't it be better to use that for the needy instead of giving it away as prizes. Plus, using these gifts to entice people to call to donate so that they can win these prizes is like subtle gambling in a way.
Oh, and what turns me off the most is that they put up an ad with the prize winners asking people to donate more so that they have a chance to win the prizes as well. I mean wtf. What happened to donating because you sincerely want to help.
i am sure NKF would love to keep the sponsors money and do without the show. but why the hassle? it is probably because the sponsors want the publicity. i dont see any other more logical explanation. even though they have given the sponsors' prizes away the donations that come from the public probably even things out, if not more.
this is a win-win situation for both the sponsors and NKF.
competition is fierce even among charitable organisations. i find nothing wrong with commercialising the fund raising effort as long as it helps to achieve the target. conventional methods might not be as effective.
nobody has anything to lose.
donors did a good deed.
sponsors got their publicity.
NKF got the funds they targeted.
NKF patients got the money they need for treatment.
some people won some prizes.
telcos made some money.
everyone got to enjoy the show.
everybody is happy. -
TMD! I don't know lah. All i know is tat i'm a quitter...one fine day i'll leave.Originally posted by FireIce:this morning i heard on the radio.....

Then those stars and Mrs Goh still call to donate.. How to filter?Originally posted by FireIce:not allowed, cos they cannot win the car or condo. -
dragg... for NKF, "helping the disadvantaged" has become a side issue.. their main aim now seems to be the raising of funds from any way possible...
that is conduct unbecoming of a charity... -
if they win, watch NKF milk it for more publicity!Originally posted by aiyo!:Then those stars and Mrs Goh still call to donate.. How to filter?
