New Way to “Play”
Play for a Cause At
Wine & Wii
WHAT: Wine & Wii -- a night of fun and philanthropy presented by Ark Restaurants.
Guests will attend the trendy Red Bull Space where they will be greeted with flat screen televisions and Wii game systems. The night will include music by DJ Swaaan, T-shirts by ThreeFourThree FC, food, open bar, and silent auction, as well as special guests like recording artist, WEtv personality and Miss Africa USA 2008 Nyasha Zimucha and Miss New York 2009 Tracey Chang. The night will also offer an opportunity to learn more about the emerging non-profit.
WHY: Wine & Wii is a fundraiser for Fresh Connections, a newly formed 501(c)(3) non-profit with a goal to inspire young, professional New Yorkers, athletes and celebrities to give back to the community by fusing social events with hands-on community service. By creating fun, innovative events such as Wine & Wii the organization aims to bring philanthropy a fun and accessible face.
Recent Fresh Connections fundraisers have benefited breast cancer, the Stephen Siller Children's Foundation, Habitat for Humanity and many more important causes. We have partnered with Tory Burch, Catherine Malandrino, and are presently working on a black-tie event at Cipriani to take place on December 5th with Rudy Giuliani and actor John Turturro (www.stephensillerfoundationgala.org).
