UNESCO Smart Car to raise cash for kids
The StratREAL Foundation is pleased to announce that we have become the patron of the UNESCO signature smart car.
A truly unique item that features over 100 original signatures including those of such notable individuals as Dr Helmut Kohl, Kofi Annan, H.I.H. Farah Diba Pahlavi, Sir Paul McCartney, Boris Becker, Bill Clinton, and Paulo Coelho to name but a few, the car was auctioned for the benefit of the UNESCO Education for Children in Need.
The StratReal Foundation will invite further celebrities and dignitaries to add their signatures during 2006/7 at events to introduce, and raise funds for, the Foundation's charitable partners. It will then be re-auctioned for the benefit of children.

The Prince of Wales Arts & Kids Foundation
The Prince of Wales Arts & Kids Foundation works to give every child the chance to experience the arts. The arts can give children the chance to step outside themselves and into a world without boundaries. Arts & Kids' work opens the door to the arts to many children who might not otherwise have that chance.
