2007 Bocky Saves Children (11.28.07)

Furi Furi created and organized the first Toy Saves Children project in 2005 modeled after a similar book project in 2004 for victims of the Sumatran Tsunami.  This annual project brings together top international artists to customize blank designer vinyl figures which are then auctioned online to benefit charities assisting children.
