Sichuan Earthquake Fund Raising Mixer! May 21, 2008

"Relief efforts are underway, now it's time for us to act!

This Wednesday, we will still hold our regular mixer, but we are going to have a fund raising effort to help some of the victims in Sichuan province. We are going to have 'raffle ticket' priced at RMB25.

For every ticket purchased, ShanghaiExpat will match the price, and 100% of it will go to Half The Sky Organization. Not only that, the ticket gives you a chance to win one of our many lucky draw prizes set to be given away!

Half The Sky has been doing putting forth a great effort and cooperating with China's Ministry of Civil Affairs and created the HTS CHILDREN'S EARTHQUAKE FUND to provide emergency and long-term relief to children in Sichuan and Chongqing affected by the quake.

Half the Sky is a US Based non-profit that takes care of orphans in China. Unfortunately due to this recent quake, many new orphans find themselves homeless, in addition to the many orphanages in the quake-ridden areas currently left out in the open! We can help, and thus Shanghaiexpat's decision to help this organization.

For more information, please visit Half The Sky

So, let's do our part. Show your LOVE and CARE; support this event!"

The Shanghai Expat Wednesday Night Mixer is held EVERY week for Expats and their friends who are looking to meet new freinds and old, away from the typical bar scene.
