cotoncandydream Posted October 15 Report Share Posted October 15 This Wednesday, October 16th: Fund Raiser for For Life's Sake FoundationDate: October 16, 2002 Location: The Vue - 151 East 50th St. New York Event: Cocktail Reception and Dinner from 7pm to 10pm includes after party After Party: Full open bar from 10pm to 2am cash bar from 2 to 4 am Donation: $150 donation per person for Dinner Reception and after party; $50 donation for after party. The Foundation: This foundation was created as The Mikey Fund on July 15th 2002, just one day after my brother, Michael Thompson, died of a drug overdose. My brother was a caring, gentle person who is missed every minute of every day that he is not with us. I created this foundation with the hope that I could prevent that pain for other families. Almost one month later my friend Lauren Pacailler lost someone very close to her to drugs. Arnon "Ronnie" Mayor Kandil passed away on August 13th of an overdose. He was active in his community, a business owner/operator and loved very much by his family, and friends. With Lauren's involvement The Mikey Fund became For Life’s Sake. This Foundation will raise funds for charities and non-profit programs active in drug abuse prevention and education. The fund will be kept alive through personal and corporate donations and fundraisers. All funds raised for the foundation will be distributed to charitable and non-profit organizations that have been researched and approved by our board. This leads us to the fundraiser. The first part of the evening will begin with cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres, followed by dinner and dancing. There will be a presentation about the foundation and about it’s beneficiaries. This will be followed by a BIG party to celebrate life. There will be six DJ’s; two dance floors, three VIP areas and four bars serving complimentary cocktails until 2 am. New York City’s top promotional companies have all volunteered to help make this a great night. Being that this is our first fundraiser any feedback, advice or volunteering is greatly appreciated! You could do as little as attend or as much as can be imagined. We are available day and night to answer questions. This is very important to Lauren and I, we appreciate all the support we have been given in the past and look forward to working with you in the future. Sincerely, Triniti Thompson &Lauren Pacailler Co-Founders of For Life’s Sake tthompson@charmer.com - Triniti’s email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
