China Care Ambassadors participated in the Caritas Macau Charity Bazaar over the weekend, marking the sixth year in a row Sands China has helped raise funds for Caritas’ annual event.
Dave Horton, global chief marketing officer for Las Vegas Sands Corp. and Sands China Ltd. presented a cheque for MOP200,000 to Caritas Macau secretary general Paul Pun at the bazaar’s opening ceremony on Saturday.
The donation will be used by the non-profit charity organization to support its operational expenses. Since 2004, according to a press release by Sands China, the company has donated over MOP 3.6 million to Caritas Macau through charity dinners and bazaars.
More than 100 Sands China Care Ambassadors volunteered during the two-day charity bazaar at the Nam Van Lake Nautical Centre, where they manned a game booth and gave out prizes, including accommodation at The Parisian Macao, tickets to the integrated resort’s Eiffel Tower, first class Cotai Water Jet ferry tickets, and food and beverage vouchers.

Renowned international jeweler Nirav Modi launched his first Macau boutique at MGM last week.
The opening of the jewelry line boutique is yet another step for the jeweler’s expansion in Asia, followed by the launch of three boutiques in Hong Kong. This boutique is a fitting expansion to Nirav Modi’s presence in South East Asia.
Modi’s Macau boutique is spread over 1,400 square feet, and has been designed to reflect the fluid movement, lightness and femininity of its jewels’ designs, as cited in a press release issued by MGM.
The Nirav Modi MGM Macau boutique is an embodiment of the brand’s philosophy – “creating jewelry that brings together the finest of rare stones set in a signature style, which allows gems to radiate from every angle and gives the jewels an eternal radiance.”
The Macau boutique houses exquisite jewelry as well as Modi’s signature collections, including the Jasmine and Embrace Collections.
The jewels have been created using a proprietary diamond cut exclusive to the brand.
