Dine Out Seattle for Haiti
18-Jan-2010
As is par for the course, the Seattle restaurant community rallies again to support a cause. This time it’s the relief effort in Haiti.
I received this email today and in the interest of time I’m just going to publish it as is:
On my own personal initiative I am working on raising money for Haiti and I really need your help. I am quickly organizing a Dine Out Seattle Night on Sunday January 24th to support the emergency relief efforts in Haiti. I am reaching out to many of the local restaurants in Seattle asking them to donate a percentage of the night’s proceeds towards a group donation to NetHope – http://www.nethope.org (or the organization of their choice). For restaurants that are not open on January 24th, I am suggesting that they elect another night and still be included in the list of participating restaurants. I have been in direct contact with NetHope and they are so thankful for anything we can do.It would be great to get your help in raising awareness for this night – please help.Facebook invite: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=254033232038&ref=mfwebsite: http://www.tastyfeast.comTo date, I’m happy to say that Quinn’s, Restaurant Zoe, Dinette, Le Gourmand, La Rustica have all agreed to participate. It’s certainly a great start, but I need more support and your help in raising awareness would make such a difference.
I hope you can help spread the word! <phone number removed, as I wasn’t sure that should be publicly shared>.Best regards,Monica Mendoza
