Isara Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 The Scientist - Yes. Just surf and search like you always do (but via Isara). That's all it takes. We just want people to visit and use the site. Once we get enough steady traffic, we'll be able to find sponsors to advertise on Isara and then ALL that money will go to create bigger projects. Right now we're doing small projects because of our small budget. I'm glad you liked the photo. I did a few different versions, as a way to say thank you to all the people who have helped (one was for my Mom because it's mother's day here in Thailand). Another one was for a forum that has also helped a lot. I just didn't know how to thank everyone so I let the kids say it for me. :) Have a good weekend everyone!

victaniac Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Oh that is the sweetest thing! :cheesy: They're just precious. By the way.. will you guys be posting the winning essays? I would love to read them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isara Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 We will have the #1 essay translated and posted in the next day or so. It was really good. We're going to have her read the essay tomorrow at the award ceremony. A lot of people will be there, including the tv news. I'm kind of nervous. My Thai isn't that good. :( We'll also be asking audience members questions about motorcycle stastics and then giving away free helmet. Should be fun. :) Should have some more photos up tomorrow. Have a good weekend everyone. pk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isara Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Just a quick photo that was taken yesterday. It's of the student who won the contest and me (look how dirty my shoes are). We are giving more than 150 helmets to the schools who participated in the contest. The winning essay will be giving 50 helmets to her school. :) Her essay was incredible and spoke about the importance of life and protecting it so that your family and your country can be strong. She is a smart kid. Hope you all had a good weekend, pk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Data Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 as a german guy, i always search at google.DE not .com . is there an isara version for german users, so that i can just look for german sites? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isara Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Glad you asked. We have numerous international versions. Although they are not updated often. http://de.isara.com Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victaniac Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 You can't forget about this.. :nice: Helmets for Life This November, Isara will begin a 2,500 km (1,550 mile) trek around Thailand, promoting motorcycle safety and the benefits of wearing a helmet. Isara Founder, Patrick Kirk Gillock, will do the entire journey on a small motorcycle (moped), similar to those used by 80% of the Thai population. Nothing like this has ever been done before so the two week event will receive national news coverage and be promoted heavily within the provinces he'll visit. Those interested can track PK's progress via Isara's homepage starting November 6th. The "Helmets for Life" campaign will not only help raise awareness but also help raise money for future projects. Isara doesn't normally ask for donations but, if you're interested, here's how you or your office can help make a BIG difference (and receive a special reward) by sponsoring each kilometer: .01 cent/km = $25 .02 cents/km = $50 .03 cents/km = $75 .04 cents/km = $100 .05 cents/km = $125 .10 cents/km = $250 Each person or group that donates will have their name on a light blue ribbon and it will be tied on a village sign along the 2,500 km heart-shaped path. As always, 100% of every donation will go directly to helping the less fortunate. Donations can be made via PayPal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
