Event: Help Cambodian Prisoners

Dear Friends of Meta House!

"Meta" means "loving kindness", "Karuna" means "compassion" in Khmer language. On the occasion of Valentine's day we like you to show compassion and kindness to 1480 inmates of Kampong Cham's CC3 prison.

SUNDAY, 13/02, from 6PM, Meta House hosts the charity event "ROCK'N ROLL SHARING SMILES": HELP CAMBODIAN PRISONERS!" featuring Khmer pop stars Yani, Boy and Ena, actress Kol Davy, 60's movie star Dy Saveth, famous singer Ek Side and eight Cambodian fashion models. Khmer youth will dress up in original 60's fashion and dance the night away.

On the rooftop we screen documentaries about prisons worldwide such as LOUIS THEROUX'S "BEHIND BARS" or STAN FEINGOLD'S "PRISONERS OF AGE".
NGOs and aid workers are asked to hold short presentations about the realities in Cambodian prisons.

An invitation is attached.

We ask for a donation of USD 2. The money will be used to buy soap, toothbrushes and toothpaste for the prisoners. On Valentine's Day (Monday, 14th) we will drive to Kampong Cham and hand the goods over to them.

Please support this good cause! You can also bring soap, toothbrushes and toothpaste or donate more than just 2 Dollars...

All the best,
Nico Mesterharm/director
