Below is a message from Mark Manuel, Diversity Director at Overlake:

The Overlake School would like to invite you to the Cambodia Celebration Banquet on Saturday, May 5th from 6:00-7:30 PM in the Overlake Campus Center. We are excited to share with our community the value of this partnerships that we have cultivated throughout the years. We have gained as much as we have contributed and feel grateful for our friends across the water.

Enjoy an evening of Cambodian food, culture, and memories hosted by the eighteen students of Overlake’s 2012 Global Service Project in Cambodia. We will celebrate another successful journey to Pailin and share our future vision of service and learning projects at our sister school. Sample authentic Cambodian cuisine from Seattle’s famous Phnom Penh restaurant, learn traditional dance, and purchase fair trade handcrafte…d woven baskets, bags, and gift items to support future the construction of a new well pump.

You don’t want to miss this event! You can purchase tickets at the front office or contact Margaret Lynch at mlynch@overlake.org or call 425-868-6191 X690

Can’t make it to the banquet?

You can still support The Overlake School in Pailin by partaking in the “Share Program” or purchasing Cambodian baskets and bags. We will have a new selection of product at the beginning of May. All funds raised go directly to the school in Pailin!
