Ngee Ann Kongsi has sponsored 900 tickets to the Teochew screenings of the Chinese film Dear You for its members and affiliated Teochew clan associations, the philanthropic organisation announced on Wed (Jul 1).
The sponsored tickets are for commercial screenings at Golden Village VivoCity, including sessions held on Jun 20 and 21, as well as additional screenings scheduled for Jul 4 and 5.
Of the 900 tickets, 800 are for the organisation’s members and Teochew clan associations such as Teo Yeonh Huai Kuan and Teochew Federation, as well as partners including staff from Ngee Ann Primary School and Ngee Ann Secondary School. The tickets are not available for public purchase.
The remaining 100 are set aside for seniors, caregivers and their family members through the Ngee Ann Kongsi Social Impact Hub, an initiative with the Singapore University of Social Sciences (SUSS) that supports programmes related to ageing and eldercare.
Among the beneficiaries attending this weekend’s screenings is Mr Liew, who will be attending the screening with his wheelchair-bound Teochew mother-in-law, and Ms Suan, who plans to watch the film with her 93-year-old mother, Madam Tan Gek Yong.
