Friends have organized the event to include plenty of entertainment for all ages, especially children, so please bring your whole family as well as friends, and colleagues. You are all most welcome!

All proceeds from the event will go to strengthen and expand our education programs, which include:
• 30 Mercy Preschools in Bangkok’s Slums
• Over 1,000 Education Sponsorships for the poorest children, including orphaned, abused and abandoned street children and children living with HIV.
• The Janusz Korczak School of SE Asia for street children
• Mokan (ethnic Sea Gypsy) Pioneer Education Project

Ways To Sponsor or Assist the Organizers:
• Cash donation
• Donating your product or Gifts-in-Kind

Several companies and local schools will be walking with us as well.
