Here are all the details courtesy of the host, our dear friend, Martin Mazloom. He knows how to put on a *great* party. We are so grateful that he has chosen to bless our center with the donations.
From Martin from the Facebook page he created for this event…
Friends,
Please join us on New Year’s Eve to celebrate the end of the decade and, more importantly, the beginning of the new year! (OK, so technically it’s not the end of the decade, but hey, let’s not get technical. It’s not time to get technical, it’s time to get down!)
The New Year’s Eve Party is being thrown to support the amazing pro-life work of Los Angeles Pregnancy Services (LAPS).
Here’s how it’ll work:
I’ll buy the food and drinks (I’m thinking some authentic tamales from East LA, pan dulce, maybe some Swedish meatballs from IKEA, sushi, curry, I don’t know. We’ll see. But I assure you, it’ll be good), and you can just make a donation of $5-$15 to cover the cost. Again, this will be on the honor system. I’m not looking to make money, only to break even. [BTW, thank you to everyone who contributed at the Thanksgiving Party. I spent $121 on El Pollo Loco and got back $117 in food donations. Yee-haw! Thank you again for not stiffing me!
]
HOWEVER, THERE WILL BE A COVER CHARGE OF $20.10 (in honor of the new year) which will go straight to LAPS. Also, glasses of champagne will be sold in order to raise money for LAPS.
And of course we will have entertainment and lots of it! Currently, it looks like we’ll have karaoke, a DJ, some circus clowns, spider monkeys, Susie Araujo on bass, and icebreakers!
So please join us for a fantastic night in order to raise funds for a fantastic organization: LAPS!
EVEN IF YOU CAN’T MAKE IT, PLEASE CONSIDER SENDING IN A DONATION OF $20.10 TO HELP LAPS START 2010 OFF RIGHT. THANK YOU!
