Play a part in charity the Asia Uncut way!
On the sixth episode of Asia Uncut, aired on the 17th April 2009, Jon had the pleasure of interviewing anti-drug crusader, Veronica Colondam, who founded the anti-drug organisation, Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa (YCAB).
Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa (YCAB), known as “Loving Our Nation’s Children”, is an independent non-profit social foundation started in August 1999. It is founded out of concern for the increasing incidence of drug abuse amongst Indonesia’s youth. Their main focus has been primary drug prevention in schools and communities, and ultimately to promote sustainable, income generating development programs in poor and disaster stricken areas of Indonesia.
You can make a generous contribution to this cause by making your bid for the auction of a collaborative art piece created by Jon and German artist Hans Mendler, as seen on the sixth episode.
