Campaign Story
Philippine Accessible Disability Services, Inc. (PADS) is an independent non-government organization, working to enable the PWD community to grow and develop as independent, integrated, fully human and empowered citizens in society. http://pads.org.ph/about-us/
The team will be participating in the 2019 CCB (Asia) Hong Kong International Dragon Boat Races (IDBR) this year and are looking to win for the third year in a row! But they need your help! Donations are in HKD
The team is looking for volunteers and donors from Hong Kong to help the team during the race. They are specifically looking for help in the following:
- Logistics - need help to bring ice, water, food to the races on June 15 & June 16, 2019.
- Water and other drinks (Gatorade/Energy drinks)- they are a team of 70 people. Ideally we would like to help provide them with sustainable, reusable water bottles to reduce the amount of plastic waste created.
- Ice
- Fruits - such as bananas, apples and oranges
- Lunchpacks - they will need food to be supplied for June 15 & June 16
HK Internationals is only a few days away. We appreciate the deadline is fast approaching but every little bit counts!
Many thanks!!
