TANGS Orchard and TANGS VivoCity will switch off its lights for one hour from 8.30pm in support of World Wide Fund for Nature’s (WWF) Earth Hour initiative on Saturday, 27 March 2010. TANGS Orchard and TANGS VivoCity will switch off all its office, facade and more than 30 per cent of the stores’ lights in support of Earth Hour, which is a world-wide call-to-action to every individual, business and community to take action to cut carbon emissions. TANGS Website, Twitter and Facebook pages will also join in the support of “switching off our lights” by turning their backgrounds black, with a countdown timer to Earth Hour on TANGS website starting from 100 hours.

Date: 17 March 2010 – 27 March 2010

“Following our successful participation in Earth Hour last year, we are committed to supporting this cause largely by educating our shoppers through our on-going “TANGS Green Effort” campaign,” says Ms Juliet Ting, Senior Vice-President of TANGS Stores Singapore.

Another key highlight of the campaign is the sale of the official limited-edition organic cotton Earth Hour T-shirt, starting from Wednesday, 17 March 2010. All proceeds will go towards funding WWF’s efforts towards creating greater public awareness on climate change. Exclusively available at TANGS Orchard and TANGS VivoCity, each T-shirt costs S$20 and comes with a free TANGS Green Tote Bag filled with goodies worth over $100 from brands like Jurlique, Triumph, Goldlion, Sloggi and Van Garie.

During the Earth Hour period of Wednesday, 17 March – Saturday, 27 March 2010, TANGS Orchard and TANGS VivoCity will specially showcase the environmentally friendly items available in-store to promote its cause to climate change.
