Feel a burning desire to do something for your community? Here's your chance to play a part in making these people's lives even better than before.
4RT is a youth-based fund raising group from Nanyang Girls' High School, under the Youth for Causes 2009 initiative. 4RT aims to raise funds for Very Special Arts Singapore (VSA Singapore), a Voluntary Welfare Organisation, through street donations and holding a concert.
VSA Singapore aims to provide people with disabilities with opportunities to access the arts for rehabilitation and social integration. It runs various programmes for people with disabilities, regardless of age. Through this project, it is hoped that public awareness regarding VSA Singapore will be raised.

4RT consists of two portions: street donation sessions and holding a concert. All proceeds will go to VSA Singapore.
Street donation sessions will be held on a weekly basis at places all around Singapore. The nature of these street donation sessions will be just like flag day.
Following that, a concert will be held in Nanyang Girls' High School Siew May Auditorium. The concert is tentatively to be held in end August. It will showcase various performing arts groups. There will also be guest performances by beneficiaries of VSA Singapore. You won't want to miss such a cool opportunity!
Tickets are priced at $10 for circle seats and $12 for stall seats.
So, how can you help? To participate in this meaningful cause, you can:
(i) Invite all your friends to join this group!!
(ii) Volunteer for the street donation sessions. We encourage most people to volunteer for this - a lot of manpower will be needed!
(iii) Volunteer at our concert - you can choose to be ushers, ticket collectors, or sell items outside the concert hall. If you'd like, you may even want to be an emcee, just that you will have to be auditioned first. However, volunteers for this section is subject to availability.
