The Power of One


Mindshare Singapore was closed for one day on 26th February 2010 to mark GroupM's Power of One Day, when the 5,000 people working in GroupM offices across the Asia-Pacific region stopped working for clients, and came together to make a difference to their local communities.

Through these efforts, we had hoped to raise funds to contribute to Save the Children's Haiti Earthquake relief efforts and would like to reach out to you to pledge your support.

Any amount would be much appreciated, and your donation will allow Save the Children to provide urgently needed medical attention, safe drinking water and other necessities. Please check out the following website to make your donations :

It was quite inspirational to see the efforts made in the morning, and overall we had a healthy balance between doing good deeds together and having a lot of fun.

There were too many highlights to list them all, but here are just a few:

10+ different group activities for the "Power of Many" in the morning, ranging from East Coast Clean up, Dover Park Hospice visit, Canossaville Children's home visit, Food from the Heart, visiting under-privileged families, Blood Donation drive and Charity Bowling Event.

Over SGD$10k raised for various charities and causes. Almost 200 GroupM'ers joined and survived the walk from Mount Faber to Hort Park

We would like to thank our clients and partners for making our Power of One Day possible.
