Marina Bay Sands adds another exciting event leading up to the Sands for Singapore Festival with the arrival of David Beckham. Beckham’s visit is a Sands for Singapore initiative to give back to the community as 60 local children between the ages of 8 and 17 from The Guardian Academy and students from Singapore Association for the Deaf’s affiliated schools were given an opportunity to meet and be inspired by the football legend.

“I have great memories of this city as it was it here that London won the 2012 Olympic bid. Coming back and seeing these kids today has been an inspiration to me. I’m honoured to be invited to the Marina Bay Sands and to launch this community sports initiative. This is a beautiful hotel, and Singapore is one of the most forward looking cities in the world,”said David Beckham.

Widely known for his philanthropic efforts, Beckham also showed his support for the inaugural Sands for Singapore Festival happening on 16-18 August, by signing a jersey that will form the centerpiece of “The Art of Shopping” component to be held at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands. The public will be able to view and bid for the signed jersey during the festival with all proceeds to benefit local charity, Art Outreach.

“In the spirit of the Sands for Singapore festival, Marina Bay Sands will be putting in its best efforts forward to give back to the local community in meaningful ways.It is an honour to have David Beckham here to support our corporate social responsibility initiatives. We hope this is an invaluable experience that these students will take with them into the future,” said Mr. George Tanasijevich, President and Chief Executive Officer of Marina Bay Sands.

Items donated by luxury retailers from The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands for “The Art of Shopping” will be encased in “Art Frames” that will sit within shop windows in varying dimensions and will play on the “Art of Window Dressing.”
