Coco's Cantina in Cambodia
Green Ideas editorial team
Auckland hot spot Coco’s Cantina, which has been quietly supporting the City Mission with food donations for years, is holding a fundraising night to help a unique charity. Friends International runs restaurants in Cambodia which train and up-skill street kids, with profits reinvested in housing, education and healthcare programmes for marginalised youth – and now a group of Kiwi friends, including Coco’s’ owners Renee and Damaris Coulter, are working with the charity to build a new training café in Siem Reap.
A fundraising lunch is being held on the afternoon of Sunday October 27th – and knowing the effervescent Coulter sisters, it will be an event not to miss. Email [email protected] for details.
