Quizzical Giving: The 2011 Beijing Charity Super Quiz

The Beijinger’s annual pub quiz is back with tougher questions than ever. We’ll be taking over Chocolate with more Beijing quizmasters than you can argue with over the technically right answer. Whether you enjoy quizzes, charity or Russian dancers, there’s something in this evening for everyone.

This year's proceeds will go to the Ping An Medical Foster Home. Last year's quiz raised over RMB 30,000 for Ping An, a local Beijing charity that is home to orphans with disabilities and that works toward providing the children with necessary surgeries. You can read more about the work of Ping An in our interview with one of the founders here.

This year, the various quizmasters will include Karl from Paddy O’Shea’s, Jim and Anthony from The Kro’s Nest, Tom from the Black Sun, Josh from Lush, Pat from the Green Cap, Liz at The Stumble Inn, Graham of the Irish Volunteer, Julian from Tim’s Texas Bar-B-Q, Alex from The Brick, and Jonny from The Bookworm.

The quiz will take place this Sunday, December 11 at Chocolate. Doors will open at 6pm and the questions will start at 7.30pm. Tables are limited to teams of 10 and tickets cost RMB 100. All proceeds from the night (ticket sales and additional donations) will go to Ping An, and you’ll get a free drink with your ticket.
