Singing for Community Causes

As part of a commitment to discharging our social responsibilities both as individuals and a group, SIX2EIGHT is always ready to lend support to fund raising causes that resonate with our values. Charitable associations for which the group has performed include the Malaysian AIDS Foundation, Kiwanis Downs Syndrome Foundation and Maurice LaCroix Miss Universe Charity Ball 2000. In January 2000 the group created, produced and staged a show called “Rockappella Roll!”, an evening of pop songs and dance “without accompaniment” and raised over RM60,000 for the Chung Hwa School Building Fund. The group also arranged, choreographed and staged "Greased – Stripped Down and Souped Up" as part of Dance4Charity in September 2002 to raise funds for Majlis Kanser Research. In July 2003 the group continued its association with Yap Cheng May and "a capella fest" and this third in the series raised funds for both Actors Studio and Dama Orchestra whose premises were destroyed in a flash flood in Kuala Lumpur. In December 2003 SIX2EIGHT helped to "Share The Blessing" and raise funds for the Nanyang Foundation at the Securities Commission Kuala Lumpur whilst March 2004 saw us helping to raise both the roof and substantial sums for Montford Boys at their Premier Charity Dinner.
