2012 Charity Bachelor Auction Wrapup

Gung Ho! Bachelor Jade!

Who will get the Final Rose? Or, as they say in Beijing, “Mai hua!”

So the Bachelor & Bachelorette Charity Auction last Friday was a massive success, packing out both floors of the Hilton’s Zeta Bar with hopeful (and cashed up) singletons and raising nearly 20,000rmb for orphan charities Magic Hospital and Morning Tears. A great time was had by all with even the empty-handed getting to dance the night away to the Beijing Beatles.

And what about our own Jade Gray? Well, JG broke the auction limit in true Gung Ho! style and ultimately went for the princely sum of 3,500rmb!

If you’d like to know how he managed this impressive feat, check out Beijing Boyce’s far more detailed wrap-up here.

Seriously. Check it out.

I don't get off my bike for less than 3,500rmb

The Little Gold Book!

Little Gold Book!

Go for gold!

Gungho Pizza is a proud supporter or the  Little Gold Book! Like Gungho, the  Little Gold Book is the proud production of two modest New Zealanders (brother and sister Andrew & Irena).  They wanted to create a product that supported charities and not-for-profits in China – and pow! the  Little Gold Book was born.

The Little Gold Book is a selection of fantastic one off deals from Beijing’s best restaurants, from 50% discount at Hatsune, Karaiya Spice House or ROOMBeijing to 2 for 1 main offers at Assaggi or the Bookworm, the Little Gold Book has 85 brilliant deals that are valid for the whole of 2012. What’s more is 30% (72 RMB) of the purchase price goes to charity!

The Little Gold Book is only 240 RMB and can be purchased online now at www.littlegoldbook.net or at participating outlets.
