We are about a week out from our last event benefiting Dress for Success and it was a big "Success" all it's own. Over the course of the night we raised about $150 in monetary donations and followed that up with an estimated $300 in clothing. The donations are being taken to the facility tomorrow and will go to help a great cause.
The fare for the Dress for Success was Mediterranean and brought quite a few interesting dishes. We have started to post the recipes from our events on the blog and you can now copy a dish to make at home.
Our next event will be held on March 11th and will benefit Water is Basic. Here is a little bit of info on the charity.
Water is Basic is a Sudanese run project that provides clean, fresh water in Sudan. Their goal is simple . . . as a Sudanese run project they will be the most relevant, lowest cost, fastest drilling organization anywhere in Sudan. This year they plan to purchase a rig for Darfur. With your help they will drill a new bore hole every day until dirty water no longer kills.
The organization was founded 5 years ago by Steve Roese. Today, Water is Basic remains the fastest, cheapest, freshest water-drilling project in Sudan. Water continues to be an urgent need and fresh water there is a catalyst for life and community transformation.
We want to really push attendance to help such a great charity so please spread the word and everybody strive to bring a friend. Water is Basic but it is also necessary so lets strive to get everyone we can involved.
