As part of an on-going collaboration between the two groups, No Sweat has donated ?2,000 (100,000 baht) to the MAP Foundation from funds raised at a comedy night in central London.
On 20th July 2011 the UK based anti-sweatshop campaign, No Sweat, held a fundraising comedy night at the Bloomsbury Theatre in London. The event boasted over 11 comedians, with several big names in the UK comedy world, all performing free to help raise money for No Sweat. Over ?5,000 was raised with all the money being distributed to workers' rights groups around the world.
One No Sweat activist, currently volunteering at the MAP Foundation, attended on the night and took to the stage to tell the audience about the conditions of migrant workers in Thailand and the work that MAP does to support them.
We would like to say a big!Thank You? to everyone at No Sweat for this donation and for your continued support.
