A beautiful parade of life-size elephant sculptures, “The elephant parade”, hit  the streets of London. This event was brought to the city by trustees and patrons like  Priya and Cyrus Vandrevala, founders of The Vandrevala Foundation; a charitable social enterprise focused on making a sustainable difference for those in need. Cyrus Vandrevala was last year the winner of the dinner with The Man Who Changed the World. An auction  in aid of the Raisa Gorbechev Foundation, which fights childhood cancer.   <o:p></o:p>

The painted elephants are to be located over central London this summer, each decorated by a different artist or celebrity. They will brighten and beautify the city in every park, street corner and building from May to July 2010. This is said to be London’s biggest outdoor art event on record.<o:p></o:p>
