Send A Child to Watch Madagascar Escape 2 Africa

The Kolisko Foundation for Education (KoFE) is holding a Block Screening of MADAGASCAR ESCAPE 2 AFRICA the movie. KoFe hopes to help the following kids to enjoy the movie on November 8, 2008 4pm at Trinoma. We hope to send 25-30 kids from each of the groups below. As of this morning, we have now 74 kids who will get a chance to watch the show. Seventy-six (76) more tickets to go!!

So far the background of our beneficiary groups for the sponsored tickets are:

1. HOPE Worldwide - will be sending 10-15 year old abused kids from their center in Payatas who are undergoing therapy
2. KIDS Foundation - a young non-profit org that helps disadvantaged youth
3. Brgy. Paltok Urban Poor Kids
4. Bahay Bata 127 Deaf Kids from Payatas
5. Batino Elementary School Deaf Kids
6. Bo. Obrero Elementary School Deaf Kids and Exceptional Kids

More organizations are on standby if there are more people willing to sponsor the tickets of the kids. Most of these kids live in really marginalized conditions - either they have been excluded from society by virtue of their disability, economic conditions or due to abuse and neglect of significant others.

This may be their only chance to watch a movie, or go to a mall, or step inside Trinoma! This may be one of the rare opportunities for them to feel that the world is not cruel, that there are kind people, even strangers, who care for them. Help us find more people who may be able to help increase the number of kids to enjoy this show. Through your help we will be able to give them this rare opportunity and in the process contribute to help save their childhood.

A ticket only costs Php350 to give a child a chance to enjoy the day on November 8 and watch the well loved MADAGASCAR movie. P1,000 to send 3. P3,000 to send 9 kids and P5,000 to send 15 kids.

Company sponsors are welcome and we can publicly acknowledge your contribution on site and in our blogs and future newsletters if at least 30 or more kids can be sponsored. This is a tiny little project that may never reach media or high society pages. But I know that isn't important to you. However, this will be a memorable moment for these kids who will have this grand experience only because you made it possible.

Please make check payable to: KOLISKO FOUNDATION FOR EDUCATION. I can also arrange for a pick up if necessary. Just let me know where and when.

You may also deposit the check or cash to CHINA BANK Shaw Blvd Branch. Email me or text me date and time of deposit so we can well account it in our record books.
