CHINA

In China, the balloon was inflated for a school in a remote village in Sichuan Province, Chaping. The village was completely destroyed in the 2008 Sichuan earthquake, and needed to be completely rebuilt. 10% of the villagers lost their lives in the quake.
The balloon was inflated next to a UNICEF Child Friendly Space, which are safe areas UNICEF create after a natural disaster where kids can come and play safely.

We shared postcards and spoke to the kids about the project, plus answered many questions from them.

MONGOLIA

We had two events in Mongolia. The first was held in the most important place in Mongolia, Chinggis Khan Square, in Ulaanbaatar. A large number of children were there, some of whom gave performances. Speeches were made and the balloon was inflated.

The following day the balloon was tethered in Nalaikh, just outside of Ulaanbaatar. Again children gave performances and were encouraged to help with setting up and packing up the balloon. Postcards were shared and we spread the message of the importance of education.

Our focus in Mongolia was promoting the importance of education and the inclusiveness of children with special needs.

KAZAKHSTAN

We had three events in Kazakhstan.
The first was in Astana, where the balloon was inflated in the new city and children from an orphanage attended. Project Director, Andrew Parker answered their questions and spoke to them about the project. They had never seen a balloon before and were very inquisitive.

The second event was in Kokshetau, at a children’s convention. The event ran for a week and children from Kazakhstan and Russia were present. The children participated in team building activities and worked on plays, along with many other fun activities. The balloon was inflated before the opening ceremony and later Andrew spoke to them about following their dreams.

The last event, in Astana, was a balloon inflation to raise awareness about children’s right to education. The balloon was inflated in a high profile location in the new city, close to the famous Khan Shatyr Shopping Centre.
