Close to 500 people attended Mitsubishi Electric Asia’s “Car Boot for Good” pre-loved to reloved drive at the Mitsubishi Electric Building last Saturday. Despite the heavy downpour in the morning, Car Boot for Good ended as a wholesome and fun-filled event with activities for all ages.

The event was graced by Guest-of-Honour, Tanjong Pagar GRC MP Joan Pereira. Attendees to the event shopped and thrifted from 30 car boots and 20 booths for unused or preloved finds, ranging from clothes, accessories, homeware, books and more. Mitsubishi Electric Asia also presented a $10,000 donation to Apex Day Rehabilitation Centre for Elderly (ADRC), its adopted charity since 2006, and one of the six participating charities and social enterprises that set up shop at the event.

Mitsubishi Electric Asia Director of Corporate Affairs Division Mr Frederick Goh shared, “This is our first foray into engaging the public to join us in our journey towards realising Mitsubishi Electric Group’s Purpose of a vibrant and sustainable society. The event is not just a platform for ADRC and supporting social enterprises to showcase their talents and partnerships, but a shared space to cultivate more sustainability-driven ideals within our Singaporean community. We hope we have inspired attendees that every little effort counts towards the shared objective of preserving the environment and planet for our future generations.”

Bask Communications is glad to partner with Mitsubishi Electric Asia for its first public engagement CSR event. We hope that visitors to the event and all Singaporeans can continue to take tiny steps in their commitment and responsibility towards a greener and more sustainable future.
