Hottie in Shanghai to support abandoned kids in China

Get a Danish hot dog for free and donate
money to a home for abandoned kids in Henan Province.
请来免费品尝丹麦热狗吧， 也同时请你慷慨相助我们在河南的孤儿之家，
All the money goes to the home.
所有募款均入孤儿之家。

My dream is to inspire people to make a positive change for
others by travelling around the world, serving a bite of Danish
culture for free to support under-funded charities, says Fanny
Posselt. Since 2003 I have been touring Europe with The Danish
Hot Dog Stand and last year we crossed the USA from New York
to Los Angeles. More recently we visited Le Mans, France.
Now the Hot Dog Stand and I are in Shanghai attending the
International Creative Industry Week to support the building of a
home for abandoned kids in China. This happens in close
collaboration with the Royal Danish Consulate General in
Shanghai.

Charity
To build the home we collaborate with the organization Morning
Tears that are run by volunteers and we will visit some of the kids
in Shanghai with the Hot Dog Stand.
Morning Tears rebuilds the world for children who have suffered
or are suffering heavy emotional pain. www.morningtears.com
In 2008 all the donated money will be given to the project
“coming home” in the city Zhengzhou in Henan Province, China.
One home for 4-8 kids and two caregivers costs approximately
9.400 Euros and the goal for the Hot Dog Stand is to build at
least one home.
Morning Tears works primarily for children whose parents are
sentenced to death or who serve a long prison sentence.
Morning Tears has signed in a friendly spirit cooperation
agreements with the Chinese authorities to carry out the project
´coming home – after the death sentence of a parent’.
Children whose parents are executed suffer tremendous
emotional pains. Besides their trauma they have to cope with
stigmas and prejudices from society. Often nobody wants to take
care of them because children of convicts are themselves
considered as criminals. These children bring bad luck. Nobody
wants to take care of them and they end up on street.
The general objective of the project is to provide home-based
care for 120 Morning Tears children. These children will be
provided with homes where they can heal from their traumas,
strengthen their resilience and fully develop their potentials.

Press release /// Hottie at Le Mans

Danish Le Mans drivers in the World’s most travelled Hot Dog Stand



Fanny Hot Dog Girl challenges this year’s Danish Le Mans drivers to make a hot dog in less than 24 seconds. Who do you think is fastest?

World’s most travelled Hot Dog Stand is right now in the Expo-Camp with Motorsportsrejser less than 200 meters from the main entrance of Le Mans 2008.

Thursday night saw the Hot Dog Team head out to K-Travel’s camp. Hottie proudly stood outside the main tent, where over 1500 happy Danes were having a racing good time. Once the hot dogs were ready, Fanny Hot Dog Girl, went on stage, interrupted the band and spread the message, officially opening the Hot Dog Stand. For 45 minutes free hot dogs and Cocios were served, and people readily donated money for this year’s charity – to build a school in China. This exciting project will be realized in collaboration with the group ‘Engineers Without Boarders’.

Danish race drivers in Hottie
Friday was the big Hot Dog race day, the Danish drivers would come to Motorsportsrejser´s camp and take up the Hot Dog Race challenge. Hottie glowed from excitement, while the Hot Dog Team made it ready for the big day. Red sausages were put on the pans and the delicious smells were blowing in the wind, the bread toaster had a test lap while the solar panels on the roof made power for Hottie’s lights.

And then it happened…right after the drivers’ interviews on stage the Hot Dog Agents grabbed them one by one and Fanny Hot Dog Girl challenged them to make a hot dog with all in less than 24 seconds. By lining up on the hot dog start line they supported the building of a school in China.

After a short introduction the drivers could make a mental Hot Dog ‘practice lap’ before the stopwatch started. A hot dog with all á la race coming up…

The flag dropped and they were off to a flying start…
You’d have thought they had been doing it for years!. Fanny Hot Dog Girl was really impressed over the speed and is convinced that they are able to transfer the speed from the race track to the Hot Dog Stand. With a steady hand and 100% focus Allan Simonsen won the Hot Dog Race.

Hottie left yesterday pulled by a bus from Motorsportsrejser, while the Hot Dog Agents and I are getting ready to leave for Le Mans tomorrow. The Hot Dog Agents on this tour is: Pernille Morthensen and Gavin Northover.

From Thursday morning we will all be in the middle of the World´s one and only 24 hour race Le Mans. We will be handing out hot dogs for free and collecting money for charity.

This year we will collect money in order to build a school in China. To do this Hottie and I are allied with the Danish organization Engineers without Boarders.

Danish drivers will stop by and help serve the hot dogs and who knows...I might challenge them to make a hot dog with all in 24 seconds.

Look out for more news and pictures.
