One Kind Act are delighted to announce their forthcoming event, CHILD OF MINE BALL:
Post Event Update
28th December 2019
The night surpassed expectations. It was the Saturday before Christmas and guests arrived at the Child of Mine Ball full of festive spirit in the truest sense of the word - ready to have a wonderful time but also with their hearts open to spreading love and goodwill around the world.
A drinks reception was followed by short but powerful speeches. Sarah, Duchess of York, a new Patron of One Kind Act, spoke of the healing that comes through giving and read out an inspiring letter to OKA from HRH Maharaja Gaj Singh of Jodhpur.
Mark Ramprakash, Patron, spoke movingly of witnessing deprivation around the world and the effectiveness of the charity's work. Shamit Malhotra, Chairman of OKA, spoke of the extraordinary journey of the charity and recognising all children as part of us.
Three Causes supported on the night spoke of the improvements to health, nutrition and education to hundreds of children in UK and abroad that OKA has facilitated.
Most powerful was by a 16-year old boy called Tyler. Between palpable nervousness, emotional moments and raw pain, he gave a first-hand account of what it's like to watch your mother struggle to feed you, to helplessly watch your younger siblings go hungry, to feel weak with exhaustion and hunger. A chance encounter with a Cause supported by OKA has ensured he and his family have enough to eat every day.
The Auction and Raffle were lively affairs raising further funds for deprived children.
The evening MC was the charming Navin Kundra who had the crowd dancing to his talented catchy singing until the late hours.
Over £130,000 was raised which will give impoverished children in UK and around the world hope, opportunity and nourishment where there is none.
What the Guests Said:
- I have been to hundreds of charity events; the difference between other charities and OKA is, with you, it all comes from the heart
- you have no idea how impactful last night was
- you are a rare charity, keep on inspiring
- what an impactful fabulous way to bring 2019 to a close
- whole heartedly wanted to thank you all for the wonderful evening
- so inspired to hear about the amazing charities you have supported along the 5 year journey
- we were so moved by the presentations
- the event was organised to most incredible meticulous detail and it was absolutely fantastic
- we are absolutely flabbergasted at how much you have achieved as a charity
- the work that you do is absolutely commendable and we are blessed to be associated with you
- the whole world should know what phenomenal work you amazing people are doing
- what a great evening, your team does a truly amazing job
