An Evening of Hope for Haiti

While today’s headlines are more likely to be about Tiger Woods’ sex life than about Haiti, relief efforts spawned by the 7.0-magnitude earthquake — which killed more than 150,000 people and devastated the impovershed nation on January 12 — are on-going. To help in the effort, Sausalito Cruising Club is holding a fundraiser tomorrow night called "An Evening of Hope." The event, which runs from 6-10 p.m. and is open to the public, will feature live music, a silent auction, and crafts activities for kids. "Lisa Rueff Schneider will be in Haiti from May 4-28," notes the flyer for the event. "She’ll be living in a tent city with 3,000 displaced women and children, and she hopes to raise $7,500 to benefit them directly." If you can’t make the event, you can still donate to the cause — to do so, email Lisa directly.
