Tiny Toones Cambodia; from Seattle Times.Tiny Toones is a troupe of b-boys (or breakdancers for the general public) who have been taught by a former gang member who sought to reform himself upon deportation from the United States back to Cambodia.

The group itself is made up of underprivileged youth and Cambodia and the programs are able to combine education with the American cultural staple of hip-hop. The Tiny Toones are currently on a tour of the United States and have two stops in Seattle. I urge everyone to check it out and support this great organization.
