African Charity Ball

The first annual African Charity Ball to benefit AIDS-impacted children both in China and Africa was a great success in what was hailed as one of the most entertaining charity balls ever in Beijing.   Over 300 people enjoyed a night of celebrating African culture with African bands, DJs, and fashion show at the Jing Guang New World Hotel.  Sponsored by the Africa China Business Association, Marriott, and City Weekend the event raised not only funds, but awareness of the AIDS situation in China and motivated the audience to become advocates of the cause.    Operation Blessing China is the charity partner in China and its AIDS Program focuses on the three vital areas of education, counseling, and nutrition.
