Kunming Charity Golf Outing

This is a free advertisement for SIL East Asia Group:
Kunming Charity Golf Outing

At Spring City Golf and Lake Resort,
Kunming, China
May 16, 2008
18 holes shotgun starts at 1:30 pm

The Purpose:

To support bilingual education amongst ethnic minorities in China. Minority children suffer academically relative to their Han Chinese counterparts because the textbooks and exams take little account of their different cultural background and their lack of fluency in the national language. Bilingual education supports the principle of respect for minority language and culture. It also results in improved health, poverty alleviation, citizenship teaching, and reduction of gender inequalities. Proceeds will go to support literacy programs for minority children and adults.
