Posted by keesa | Filed under Fundraisers, Haiti

A massive earthquake struck Haiti on Jan. 12 with some estimates putting the casualties at hundreds of thousands of lives. At the time of this post, Haiti officials are still trying to assess the extent of the devastation.

The Glide Foundation, in partnership with Bay Area Benefit, Citizen Hope, and A Good Idea invites supporters from the San Francisco Bay Area to an event to raise funds for the disaster victims in Haiti and for Glide on Saturday, January 30, from 9 p.m. at Nuit Blanche, 564 Market St, San Francisco.

Nuit Blanche, an exclusive penthouse in downtown San Francisco, will host this open bar event with tickets starting at $45 available at http://sfrecess.eventbrite.com.

Event will feature Legendary DJ KingMost, an open bar and hors ‘doevres.  The $45 ticket price is good until January 22 (only 65 of these tickets are available) and the price goes up to $60 on Jan. 23.

    Have anyone noticed that earthquake is a bit frequent these days? . Does climate change have any thing to do with earthquake?
