Sands China Ltd. recently donated MOP 300,000 to Caritas Macau, in support of two annual Caritas Macau events, the 52nd Charity Bazaar and the 2021 Charity Run, marking Sands China’s 18th consecutive year donating to the local NGO.
Since 2004, the gaming operator has contributed nearly MOP 5million to Caritas Macau. The funds help support Caritas Macau’s operational expenses and its efforts to develop and implement social services in the community.
In light of Macau’s Covid-19 control and prevention measures, this year’s Charity Run was held as a virtual run and the bazaar was held in the form of several mini-bazaars at various locations, in order to prevent large gatherings of people in a centralised location.
For the virtual run, participants complete their runs at their own chosen locations within a specified period of time and then submit photos from their runs, such as from running apps or treadmill screens.
