Other exciting games include dart games, chapteh and an Australia-originated traditional game "Down, Down, Down!"

For those who love to cam-whore, there will be a SMILES CAMPAIGN drive, where we will take photos of you to compile into a slideshow to show the world that we care about the world's issues and are willing to make an effort to put smiles on others' faces too!

Also, from Wednesday to Friday, there will be a Mother's Day Tribute booth, where you'll be able to buy ready-made or personalised cards for your mother, so you won't have to worry about getting a gift for your mother on Mothers' Day (this Sunday!)

Thursday & Friday - Fair (2-5pm, Inner Plaza)

The highlight of CARITAS 2009 would be the fair involving the Non-Profit Organisations (NPOs). There will also be international food tasting, NLB book-loaning, a refugees corner where you will be able to relax and watch videos, and many more!
