What is a flash mob? A flash mob is a large group of people who gather in a usually predetermined location, perform some brief action, and then quickly disperse. Typically someone will get an idea for a flash mob, let's use having a pillow fight in a public area as an example (this actually happened with about 300 people one day in Trafalger Square London. It lasted twenty minutes.) A person will get an idea, set the date, the time, the length of the mob gathering and the place. They will then email or text message this information to a large group of people, who would pass it on to friends, who then pass it on to friends and so on and so on. After recieving the electronic message those wishing to participate in the flash mob would make thier own arrangements for travel to the designated place and participate in the mob.
I recently traveled to the Tsunami torn island of Koh Phi Phi, in southern Thailand. I was amazed at the amount of need that still remains on this island. Part of this is due to the fact that currently the Thai government is not helping with the rebuilding efforts on Phi Phi. These wonderful people not only need others to come physically rebuild their homes, but they also need their world family to come spend money to help restart their economy.
This site was developed to help those that would like to participate in a Flash Mob Missions project to Thailand. On it you will find all the information you need to participate in this once in a life time experience. You find how to make travel arrangements, where to stay, what to bring, who to contact about work projects and much more.
One of the most important aspects of a flash mob is that the word about it gets out. Even if you do not plan to participate by joining the flash mob in Thailand, you can participate by helping us share this oppertunity with everyone you know!
These people need our help. During this singal week, one or two of us could make a difference, 30 to 40 of us could make an impact or 150 to 200 of us could change the world. Join a gathering of like minded folks in somehting that may seem so complicated and crazy, but is truly simple and important!
