Cocktail for a cause

On December 8th 2010, the PRCF hosted their first public engagement event named “Cocktail for a Cause” in support of wildlife species and indigenous peoples’ projects in South-east Asia.  The focus of the event was the “Tiger Conservation” project at the Lomphat Wildlife Sanctuary in Cambodia, and the “Ikat and Environment” project in Indonesia.  Video displays were used to raise awareness of efforts in these two PRCF Country Programs.  Visit the event’s blog for details on the event, and to have access to the images and videos relating to the cocktail.

Despite the horrible weather, traffic and parking difficulties, our first public engagement event was a success!  The event raised small funds in support of both projects, and one lucky winner won a gift certificate for dinner for two at Restaurant Nonya: Cuisine Indonesienne.  Nonya generously donated the gift certificate as a prize for the event.

Special thanks to:

• JP Romero of Think – Graphic Design for providing the art work for the event; and
• Macaroni Bar for the use of their venue.
