Attend a Charity Event we are hosting for @shineglobal which is an incredible cause!

Devious Media News - Mon, 08/30/2010 - 13:43

Hi Friends,

As many of you know, I often donate money to great causes, but never reach out to others to help a cause I believe in.  In this particular case, I was inspired to not only write a check, but to try to get the word out on the issue while raising money for it. What better way to do this than through an upscale classy party, where I'll have plenty of hors d'oeuvres, wine, liquor, and entertainment for the guests to enjoy.  

The organization, Shine Global, is dedicated to ending the abuse and exploitation of children through the production of documentary films that raise awareness and inspire social and political change.  You can learn more about them at www.shineglobal.org.  The people involved in this organization are from within the Entertainment Industry and have decided to band together to use their connections and talents to produce and distribute these powerful documentaries to educate mass audiences, which ultimately influences regulators and politicians to do the right thing.

I'll get more info to all of you soon but for now, please save the date and RSVP as requested in the form below.  I truly appreciate your support of this cause.

I look forward to seeing you on Friday, September 24th at 6PM for an educational, and a very fun evening (we'll have bartenders, raffles, silent auction - if you can donate something to this, please let me know, palm readers, massages, and other fun entertainment - it will be a great night).  

All the best.

Dave
