Reminder: myME Project Launch Event in NYC (09/27/2013) @6:00-8:00pm

[Tim Aye-Hardy]

Hello everyone,

Just a friendly reminder about our myME project launch event this Friday
(09/27/2013) from 6:00-8:00pm at Gallery 151 (130 West 18th Street, NY
10011). Hope you will be able to join us to support this unique and vital
project to help the most vulnerable children in my motherland receive a few
hours of schooling each day. They have been compelled into indentured
servitude by their often desperate parents and relatives, and they are
forced to work long hours every day in order to sustain their families.

Also, check out this compelling short documentary (http://bit.ly/19GKbA2)
by GlobalPost called "Myanmar Emerges: Breadwinners", to help comprehend a
bit more about their struggles, challenges and daily lives. International Labour
Organization estimates about 215 million children around the world lose
their childhoods to hard and hazardous labor. Experts also say that over one
third of Burmese children work, ranking the country amongst the worst in the
world for child labor.

Please check out this Facebook Event
(www.facebook.com/events/421838344595073) and attached flyer for more
details. Please feel free to share/invite anyone who might be
interested and look forward to see you all on Friday.

Sincerely,
~Tim Aye-Hardy (တင္ေမာင္ေအး)
