What: 2nd Annual Cocktails 4 a Cause – “Building Hope for the Future”When: Thursday, October 7, 2010Why: To benefit FINCA & The Khushi ProjectWho: CC4C & NYC’s Finest Young Professionals
On a beautiful, clear Thursday night, The City Chicks geared up for their 2nd Annual Cocktails 4 a Cause event to benefit TWO very important charities that fall under this year’s theme, Building Hope for the Future.
FINCA provides financial services to the world’s lowest-income entrepreneurs so they can create jobs, build assets and improve their standard of living. The Khushi Charitable Society develops local educational programs to provide better opportunities for underprivileged children and make their experience of this world a joyous one.
Marquee was the venue for this amazing event which featured the following sponsors: Tito’s Vodka, Riazul Tequila, Francis Ford Coppola Wines, Vita Coco & Pop Chips. We brought back the silent auction which had some amazing items such as Carnegie Hall & Jimmy Fallon tickets, 4-some golf outings and Dinner for 5 cooked by celebrity chef of Delicatessen, Michael Ferraro. Chef Ferraro’s item alone raised $3,500!
The night quickly turned into the fiesta it was meant to be, with our VIP tables stealing the spotlight with their dancing and lots and lots of mingling.
We are very proud to announce that, with the unbelievable generosity of our 300 guests and supporters, we raised $28,525! This is more than double the amount raised last year and we could not be more excited. A HUGE thank you to everyone who attended, donated and supported!
