Beijing Trek to Benefit Bring Me A Book

  • 30/03/2016 - 23/05/2016

is fundraising for Bring Me A Book Hong Kong Limited

Our combined efforts will provide a library (Cost: 70,000 HKD) to a Hong Kong community center. Every dollar gets us one step closer to our goal!

My Story

APAC and EMEA Gives have joined forces to organize a combined excursion to trek the Great Wall and to raise money for our local charities. Hong Kong has 8 participants, and we are raising money to benefit Bring Me A Book Hong Kong, the BlackRock Gives legacy charity from 2015. Bring Me A Book aims to advocate for family literacy by facilitating access to quality children’s books in English and Chinese and empowering parents and educators via dedicated training to make reading fun. The fundraising from the Beijing trek will be used to provide another library to underserved families in our community and we will be fundraising and hosting several events as part of this initiative.

We have an internal BlackRock site available for easy matching as well, so please stay tuned for subtotals here.

April 29th status: over $60,000 HKD raised.

Hong Kong Trekkers: Con Tzatzakis, Benjamin Gregson, Chris Maginnis, Candy Cheng, Eric Mueller, Crystina Hickey, Deyi Wu, Bing Xiao & Gina Noel D'Ambrosio

Thank you!

    This is a wonderful thing that you are doing. When people can read, their lives are infinitely more rewarding.
