The organisers for ChildAid 2013 are looking for young talents to be part of this charity calendar event, which will be staged on Dec 6 and 7 at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore.

Furthermore, ChildAid is organised by The Straits Times and The Business Times. Since it started in 2005, the annual ChildAid concerts have raised a total of $7.823 million. In fact, last year's show raised a record $2.016 million.

Interestingly, the organisers are looking for dancers, musicians, master of ceremonies and other talented youths between the ages of six and 19 who want to help the less fortunate by raising funds for The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund and The Business Times Budding Artists Fund (BAF). Past ChildAid performances have involved youths who have earned top accolades which include jazz singer Nathan Hartono and Kevin Loh, recipient of the HSBC Youth Excellence Award in 2010.

Now, coming to concluding factor, those interested in performing at ChildAid 2013 should submit their entries to This email address is being protected from spambots.
