St. Regis Hotel

I’m working with several friends and colleagues to raise $15,000 to aid Atlanta-area flood victims who are still in desperate need.

Not So Silent Night Atlanta Holiday Bash benefitting Atlanta flood victims who aren’t in the news anymore, but still in desperate need. Proceeds from the event go directly to Cobb Disaster Recovery and The Furniture Bank of Metro Atlanta. The event aims to raise $10K in cash donations for the two agencies and $5k in donated goods and services for the victims.

Join us for heavy hors d’oeuvres and drinks, mingling and networking in the posh, sophisticated ambiance at the St. Regis Hotel!

Hors d’oeuvres and two drinks included in ticket price.

Why: As many as 1,500 families in Cobb County are still trying to piece their lives together after losing their homes and belongings in the Atlanta flood. Many are still living with friends, family or in hotels. Many are in need of aid and face the daunting task of furnishing a place to live. Let’s get them the help they need before the holidays. These are mothers, fathers, sons and daughters, old and young. They may be our friends, neighbors, family, co-workers. We need to have their lives back to normal so they can continue contributing to our society and our economy.

Beneficiaries: Cobb Disaster Recovery, The Furniture Bank of Metro Atlanta, Atlanta Flood Victims
