The fundraising was coordinated by a non-profit newly formed
organization that is trying to do their good deed to help
landmines victims. The org. is called, Freedom Fields USA
(http://www.freedomfieldsusa.org)
The org. is trying to raise $200,000 from friends and business
people in Carmel and others in the US. They found our dance
group through searching around the Cambodian community in
San Jose.
Our Dance Troupe performed 3 dances: the
Blessing dance and the Coconut Shields dance
for the evening of formal dinner with 200 guest at Clint Eastwood
Club House on Carmel Golf course, top of the hill. The Freedom
Fields USA has about 12 members including Mrs. Dina Eastwood
(wife of Clint E).
The organization's member told Mrs. Chamroeun
Yean, Coordinator, that Cambodia was one of their first choice
because the world has not paid much attention to this small
country but Iraq or some place else. She said the landmine
victims in Cambodia need helps badly." These ladies are
very dynamic and devoted. They are taking their busy time
in their life to do this just because they want to help.
