I'm so impressed with these bloggers in China, and can't even read the language!

Their Dreamwalker organization is doing incredible things to change their part of the world for children, all inspired by Michael's humanitarianism! I truly love their message...
Keep MJ alive - Give children a chance
Our second fund-raising charity show on July 24 was a successful blast. Together with our first show in June, we have received a cumulative sum of over 20,000HKD. Using the scale from Save The Children of buying a pair of shoes per 50HKD raised, the amount we received can purchase 400 pairs of shoes, which means we can help 400 children in remote China by sending them the shoes so that they will not need to walk to school barefoot anymore.
To continue Michael Jackson’s spirit, and also as a special gift for his birthday, Dreamwalker will have our final charity show on August 28. This will be a wonderful and meaningful way to spend your summer, so please do not hesitate to participate!
Question: Why are our 3 charity shows performed in Kwun Tong?
Michael Jackson once said, go to the poorer areas, reach and care for those who are in need; you can see the same idea in his “Heal the World.” We must start from our very own community before reaching out to the wide world. In fact, the Kwun Tong district suffers from serious poverty: there are 3,600 families receiving government subsidies of Comprehensive Social Security Assistance, which is the top district with the most families living under government subsidies.

The mall is a place where people from all classes gather. There are also a significant number of new immigrants from Mainland China and young population, Dreamwalker wishes to encourage and show them Michael Jackson’s spirit and also our care through our charitable acts of singing and dancing.
Question: How much are participants required to donate?
Donation is completely unrestricted with no maximum and minimum limits. Dreamwalker emphasizes on the sacrificial spirit behind the donation, not the donation itself.
One donates maybe a dollar, but that already is all he/she has; one may donate ten thousand, but that can be only a very small portion he/she owns. Most importantly, ask yourself, ask what you have sacrifice to donate in order to help and support the children under severe poverty in remote China, and ask yourself what this money means to you and them.

Also please watch the video by Kenny Ortega. Find out how Michael could walk into a run down orphanage one day, and force changes by the next!
Thank you Michael, for all of your miracles!
