UNICEF FUNDRAISING DINNER

"HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?"

Khan Manka, Jr., Chairman & CEO, Manka Bros. Studios

March 14, 2010

Good evening. As I look around this world of ours - and I see a lot of it every year traveling for Manka Bros. - I see a lot of suffering. From writers who can barely pay their rent if they don't sell a script to the mother of eight trying to collect change at the freeway exit. And war. Some say there are wars being fought in this world. Misery is out there, folks, I've seen it.

My question to all of you here today - and let me remind you, your $3,000 dollar a plate tab is mostly going to UNICEF - and a very good cause it is... My question to you today is "How much is too much?"

If there were only one starving child in the world, we wouldn't be having these benefit dinners. People would say "One kid? That's not so many. Give him a sandwich." But I'm afraid it's many more kids than that. At what point did we finally say "Enough! That's it! There is now too much starvation. Let's raise money and feed them!"

When the unemployment rate goes up in this country, the stock market sometimes goes up and sometimes doesn't. So the ironic thing here is that if everyone had a job and everyone had money - we'd could have the biggest depression and unemployment rates in the history of mankind. And also, perhaps not.

So, maybe now you're thinking a few kids need to starve to avoid world financial meltdown. Well, I say "NO" to that!

Now, I didn't go to college - but I was born into a prominent show business family.

Get out your checkbooks and let's feed some kids. Thank you.
