Buddies without Boundaries Community Fun Walk

California Martial Arts Academy will be participating in the 1st Annual Ladera Ranch “Buddies Without Boundaries” 3k Fun Walk on November 7th, 2009. “Despite hard economic times, we are doing are best to support the local community and helping anyway we can”, says Kingston Heng, Sr. Chief Instructor of California Martial Arts in Ladera Ranch.

To help with the fundraiser, CMA has donated several gift certificates to be auctioned off at the carnival followed immediately after the 3k fun walk. In addition, we’ve been training the students of California Martial Arts in the Chinese traditional dragon dance. Learning dragon dancing is a way to learn about Chinese culture and the history behind the custom. The dragon is said to bring good luck and prosperity and is usually seen during festivals such as Chinese New Year. Hopefully our dragon will spread good fortune and luck to the community during the Fun Walk.

About Buddies without Boundaries

Buddies Without Boundaries was originally initiated as a way to focus efforts on a single goal at a time. Started by the Teens Who Care group, Buddies Without Boundaries knows when you focus on one single objective, powerful results follow, and we have designed our group to pursue one goal at a time, until it is completed. Once each goal is accomplished, a committee will select the next deserving family / cause, and on into the future.

For the inaugural effort, a non-biased committee reviewed many applications and nominees of local families with needs. For this year, Buddies Without Boundaries has selected the Edgerton Family of Ladera Ranch to be the recipients of their efforts. . Please click here to read more on the Edgertons.
