Smiling Gecko Educational Campus
A colourful fall
As a small organization with very limited resources, we are always happy to have people join us in raising as much money and awareness as possible through their dedication and passion. We have a number of events planned for October and November that we would like to announce here.
On October 19, Thomas Buss aka DJ Mr. Tomato will be throwing a big dance party at the Schützi cultural center in Olten to benefit two charities. One of them is Smiling Gecko. The entrance fee is 30 francs. The net profit of the evening will be split between the two organizations. Tickets are available here.
From October 21 to 26, the great yoga teacher Rebecca Robinson will be hosting a yoga charity retreat at the Farmhouse Resort & Spa for the first time. So anyone who has ever wanted to come to Cambodia now has a double reason to do so. We are looking forward to the event and can say that the daily program looks very promising. Dive in, feel good, switch off and enjoy Cambodian hospitality! All information and the possibility to book can be found here.
On October 27, Isabel Karajan and friends will be coming to the Kindli Restaurant on Pfalzgasse in Zurich to raise money for us at a charity lunch. We already had the wonderful Austrian actress at the opening of our cultural center “The Gong” in Cambodia and guarantee that she will be there: This is sure to be a very entertaining Sunday lunch. The entrance fee is 250 Swiss francs (donation receipt) and you can still register with Thomas Hemschemeier until 27.9. E-mail: hemschemeier@smilinggecko.ch
On November 9, the Jugendmusik Rechter Zürichsee (JUMURZ) will hold its annual concert at the HesliHalle in Küsnacht ZH. The proceeds of the evening will be donated to us and we will be present with a small stand. Tickets will be available soon.
