It was a triumphant Pink Day again for Bangkok Prep on the 31st March as the whole school went pink-crazy to raise awareness of breast cancer and to raise as much money as possible for Bangkok Breast Cancer Support – a local charity which helps local women suffering from breast cancer.

Both Primary and Secondary paid to wear pink outfits for the day and Secondary had a cake, nachos and candy floss sale. There was also a healthy ‘lapathon’ in lesson 7 for Secondary students to encourage fitness.

Great thanks must go to the students of the CAP committee for their tireless work and enthusiasm in the preparation of the day. Likewise, Ms Wilsonlock and Ms Marsh were also tireless in their support and the whole CAP team were grateful for their help in organising the bake sale and candy floss sale.

Year 12 students Utkarsh and Farez also need praise for their initiative in creating their garment company ‘Vein X Gain’ and selling pink T-shirts to many students. The company donated all their profits to the charity and worked very hard to promote and sell the T-shirts.

The total money raised this year by the Think Pink charity day was THB65,809 baht, a fantastic achievement!

The Bangkok Prep CAP Committee would like to thank everyone who helped in any way, especially all the students and parents who donated to this very worthwhile cause.

We really have made a big difference to a lot of disadvantaged local women by raising this money.
