excited about this, our first Fundraiser and we know it will be the first

GLOBAL GREEN AT AVALON
Hollywood
– February 21, 2007 - Bob and I were at AVALON at noon to set up
twelve of the beautiful gold bins that he’s been working on for weeks. They
truly are a work of art.
The excitement began that evening with a trip
down the “Green” Carpet at the Global Green Oscar Party at AVALON on
Wednesday evening with our spokesperson, Sharon Lawrence. But before we even
went down the Green Carpet Sharon introduced me to Councilmember Eric
Garcetti and Cynthia Ruiz (who, by the way wins the most FABULOUS nails of
the weekend award hands down!) both of whom I shared our vision.
As we headed down the Green Carpet, Sharon
graciously took my arm as she posed for hundreds of photographers as they all
called out, “Sharon, left! Sharon, right! Sharon, over your shoulder…” I was
in awe of how she handled it all. Marc was there as well but Bob chickened

MILLION ‘CAN’ MARCH
Sunday April 22, 2007
We are challenging at least one million
people across the country to gather up $10.00 in empty cans and bottles
that have returns on them and bring them to Earth Day celebrations around
the country (and in Canada).
The
goal and purpose of the Million "Can" March is two-fold:
The
first goal is to raise more awareness for recycling and to make our
beautiful mother earth a much greener place to live.
The
second goal is to raise $10,000,000.00 in one single day that would go
directly to the homeless in the homeland and beyond.
Won't you please join us for this momentous
day that many have said will potentially 'change the world.'
