ChinaNext: Photography Fundraiser For Shanghai Students

This is something that has been taking up a heap of my time recently. Together with a few Flickr friends in Shanghai, we put together a photography competition and silent auction fundraiser using the Flickr interface. Monies raised at this event will be donated via Shanghai Sunrise, to the Xin Shi Ji Xiao Xue School on Hongqiao Road, Shanghai. 1750 students are in dire need of a library. 30% of the bar takings also goes to the students. Also, photographers will take portrait shots for a fee in a little mini-studio area.

The big auction is tonight, so if you're in Shanghai, please turn up to La Bella Cafe (127 Yongfu Lu, near Fuxing West Road) from 7pm.

There's a lot more information about the event over on these websites...
