[if !supportEmptyParas]Other Guests of Honors have shared their insights on corporate social responsibility during the event. Ms. Marina Wong, JP, the Founding President of Hong Kong Women Professionals and Entrepreneurs Association, has sent her blessings from afar through a video, reminding us that charity is everyone's responsibility. Even though most SMEs have limited resources, with certain creativity, charity activities could still be fun and staffs could be more engaged in charity works with a given mission.  Ms. Bianca Ma, the Managing Director of Metro Broadcast shared: "We, as the mass media, concern about everything. We offer a platform with different voices which can take care of the needs from different sectors, especially those in the vulnerable groups." She added:" We hope that the influential power of the media can arouse the public concern on the corporate social responsibility so as to achieve a win-win."

The climax of the ceremony, of course, was the award presentation to the 1st Fiesta Charity Ambassador, Miss Gisela Lee, who came all the long way from

United Kingdom.  After winning from the exciting voting with professional panel judging, she received her award from Ms. Winnie Young, the artistes and program host, former Miss Hong Kong.  Gisela will take up her charitable mission to support Fiesta in all future charity work in 2010. "When you purchase Fiesta jewelry for your own wearing, or as a gift, you actually saved the children, and helped them to access the basic human rights, education, health care etc, and create a lasting change in their lives."  The top Charity Sales Award went to Miss Precious Dabilo who is from Malaysia who won the highest number of charity votes from purchasers. The net sales proceeds raised during this campaign period will be donated to CNCF, to help the needy

children.

The award ceremony came to an end with Ms. Alice Amu to lead the entire Fiesta Team to sing "Fragrant Memory - Fiesta". Fiesta is possibly the first multi-brands designer jewelry company in Hong Kong that has its own theme song!
