All the door proceeds from PKN Volume 8 would go to the post earthquake-tsunami rebuilding efforts in Japan. It will be a part of "Inspire Japan" – a global initiative led by the Pecha Kucha HQ in Tokyo along with Architecture for Humanity in which 120+ cities from around the world are participating. Since PKN is volunteer driven – at the local as well as global level – and do not have any overheads or administrative costs, 100% of what is collected will go to the rebuilding work.

PKN Vol. 8 will also be a part of the 5-day Southend Soul celebrations: http://www.southendsoul.com
