SAVE the Date: FUNDraiser!

Trying to take full advantage of the whole social media thing to advance my organization, so I have my blog entries set up to tweet automatically, and I just set Twitter up to feed FB. That may be a little TMI on a regular basis (I don't share my blog with everyone on FB; only those who are motivated enough to look it up on my profile). But I need to inundate everyone I know, especially those of you who live in Manahattan, regarding the FUNdraiser we're having. Most of you know I'm the Executive Director of a nonprofit that provides low income housing and other supportive services for people. Come October, the organization will have been around for 45 years. We're in Phoenix mode right now, and our latest effort is that we're partnering with California Pizza Kitchen as a fundraiser. It will work like this
You take this flyer:








Print it out.
On Thursday, September 8, you go to the California Pizza Kitchen at 30th Street and Park Avenue South in Manhattan. (be sure to take the flyer with you!).
Eat. Drink. Be Merry.
Give the flyer to the server when you pay your check.
TWENTY PERCENT of the profits from all checks presented with the flyer will be donated to our organization.
Tell Everyone you know, so this is repeated throughout the day, the house is packed, and we get money to continue offering the Strength, Support, and Stabiliity that are so crucial for those on the journey from homelessness to housing.

But, Really, folks: This is awesome! Instead of asking people to dress up in an evening gown or a tux, pay $100.00 for a rubber chicken and listen to a lot of boring speeches, all we're asking you to do is go to a specific restaurant AT ANY TIME during a specific day, and buy food. Everybody's got to eat, right? So start planning now to come out and support us on Thursday, September 8, 2011 at the California Pizza Kitchen in Manhattan!!
