Santa Monica Event Will Raise Funds For Africa And Asia

STUDIO CITY (CBS) — How would you like to help reduce poverty in Africa and Asia from right here in the Southland?

Shaheen Nanji and Sasha Rawji visited the KCAL9 studio Tuesday to talk about how you can be involved with Partnership Walk LA.

On Nov. 13, more than 4,000 people are expected to walk to end global poverty in the 17th annual Partnership Walk at Santa Monica Pier. The walk features lively entertainment and activities for all ages to celebrate the diversity of world cultures.

Last year the walk raised over $500,000 and is expected to raise more this year. Organizers say 100 percent of the funds raised go directly to projects sponsored by the Aga Khan Foundation.
