Texas Style BBQ for a Cause drums up support for WIMLER



The WIMLER Foundation believes that education is the key to fighting poverty. Through various programs, its aim is to empower people to basically help themselves. But to do that, they need a helping hand to get them on their way. To directly support their work and help under privileged children, we holding a Texas Style BBQ for a Cause” with all proceeds going to the Foundation. We believe this is a novel approach to helping raise funds, while having a lot of fun in the process.

We have secured the support of the United Services Recreation Club (USRC),which they will host the event on May 6, 2011.

This Texas Barbecue will offer guests unlimited food and drinks and music but more importantly will allow participants to experience a unique event and food, while helping those less fortunate than themselves.

OBJECTIVE

To raise funds to support the education of 20 pupils in Nueva Vizcaya (Luzon) for the school year 2011-2012. It is also hoped that we will be able to raise more money to support more children in Mindanao.


TARGET

Our target is to have at least 250 guests, each paying HK$500.00 an all-in price that also includes one raffle ticket.

Money raised from the event will be sent to the WIMLER Foundation, who will select the children to attend school this June 2011. We will follow up with them on their progress, and keep all sponsors and guests abreast on how their money is being put to good use through Wimler's website and blog.
