Tommy Miah, the Curry King, supports ASTI in Madrid on 21st April 2012!!
Version of the following article has appeared on the cricketeurope4.net website by Jonathan Woodward – President Madrid CC on 13th December 2011
Tommy Miah will be opening a brand new cricket academy in Bangladesh next year and has requested help from Madrid CC to promote his academy by way of a benefit dinner on the Saturday night of our T20 tournament in La Manga Club Resort. As well as eating some amazing Bangladeshi cuisine cooked by Tommy himself, guests will be treated to some great entertainment, an auction held by Farokh Engineer and the hospitality of La Manga Club Resort !
The money raised at the dinner will go to Farokh’s chosen charity, a homeless shelter in India, and ASTI, an amazing organisation set up to help the victims of acid attacks. The first six victims helped by ASTI were, in fact, operated on here in Spain by some top Spanish surgeons! Since our first contact with Tommy 2 months ago the event has been announced all over Europe and Asia, advertised on the ECC Website and we have even been interviewed live for 90 minutes on a Bangladeshi TV station that is broadcast on SKY Channel in the UK
In 2012 we are also very happy and honoured to welcome a brand new addition to the event. Netball Madrid will be running a netball tournament alongside the T20 tournament in order to help us raise more funds and to promote netball here in Spain . It promises to be a great event and we look forward to their company in April.
The event is open free of charge to any and all spectators and tickets for Tommy Miah’s Benefit Dinner will be available to the public on sale as of the end of January. Don’t miss out on the best cuisine Bangladesh has to offer! Come join us in April.
