Corporate Bits | Sands Cotai central hosts community event for children

Around 40 children and their families from YMCA Macau enjoyed breakfast with Thomas & The Little Big Club All Stars Saturday at Sands Cotai Central, hosted by a group of Sands China Care Ambassadors.

As Easter is approaching, the event included a festive egg painting activity after the themed character breakfast, the gaming operator said in a statement.

They were assisted by the Sands China Care Ambassadors and by Sands Cotai Central’s executive pastry chef, who gave a lesson on egg painting and provided samples of painted eggs to spark the children’s creativity.  

The participating children and families came from YMCA Macau’s Shek Pai Wan Youth Service Team, Vila Lok Tou, and Youth Community Center. 

“The children and their families get to enjoy a fun and memorable time together with an experience that might have been harder for them to attend on their own,” said Grace Kuan, secretary-general of YMCA Macau.
