    I know of several seminars that are being organised to raise money for aid for the Philippines after the recent typhoon, would it be acceptable to post details for such events on MAP or will it breach TOS?

    I think that as long as all monies are going to charity it's a very worthy cause and MAP would be happy to support it. :)

    If anyone has details of charity events to raise funds to help those affected by the Philippines Typhoon, please feel free to post them in this thread.

    I've been invited to a blade seminar on the 8th December and payment is by anonymous donation. All proceeds go to the disaster victims.

    I've asked to organiser if it's an open event and if I can post details here.

    Very true. Cheers GB-UK. I'm thinking about doing likewise with the college when I'm back on campus. Not sure if that's allowed by the college or no. Will find out, I guess.

    No details yet, but Fight World Downs in Toowoomba Qld are trying to organise a fund-raising seminar with Tino Ceberano in early December.

    I've just spoken to slipthejab and he is currently based in Cebu.

    His words were, " we just got hammered by an earthquake a tornado and a super typhoon. The poor people here got just annihilated".

    If you can attend a seminar, please do. If you can't, then even your change thrown in a charity bucket will help make such a difference.

    I'm also attending a seminar run by Ian Forster, but as places are limited I can't post the details here.

    The fee is anonymous donation, which is nice because all can give what they can, or feel they should.

    Places will be limited at the event at moifa as well so if you want to go contact Paul ASAP. Going from the FB page there are 12 people confirmed so far.

    There is also a seminar being organised for early December, it will be a three hour seminar with Guro's Bill Lowery, Jimi McAvoy and Darren Langthorne who will be teaching elements from their arts (Doce Pares, Blind Princess Escrima and Warriors Eskrima). £10 per person with further details of date, time and venue to come soon.

    My friend who attends Kickfit gym in Nottingham recently posted this up on Facebook. I have edited it slightly to tidy up the paragraphing etc and to include proper contact details for anyone interested.
