Impact: Priceless

DONATE/PRE-REGISTER NOW

Sometimes in life, things happen beyond our control. It seems everyday in the news we hear about another crisis that's unfolded onto our world, and most situations seem too big and terrible for us to make an impact on. But sometimes, in the midst of all the natural disasters and worldwide health epidemics, a major life-changing obstacle comes our way, and the news isn't delivered via network satellites from thousands of miles away.

 

Recently, our dear friend and colleague, Miriam Perry, suffered her own personal tragedy. Miriam's parents, Bice and Joe Rivera, lost everything they owned to a horrific and devastating fire. The fire burned down their apartment complex in Norwalk, Connecticut and displaced 150 people from their homes. Miraculously, each and every resident survived and none of the responding firemen or police officers were hurt. While nothing is more valuable than all the lives saved, survivors were left with little more than the clothes on their backs when they escaped before the complex burned to the ground in the middle of that night.

 

Can you imagine yourself standing amidst the blaze as all your belongings, personal treasures and memories disappeared forever? We can't. And if you feel like we do, you'll join us for our special fundraiser to help the Riveras get back what they've lost.

 

The Hi-Hat in Davol Square in Providence, Rhode Island has generously offered their beautiful (and very sassy) space for the event. Entertainment will be provided by the swinging (and also, very sassy), nine-piece jazz/pop fusion band, The Blackstone Project. It's the perfect excuse for that after-work summer cocktail. Bring your friends, family and coworkers, have a drink, order some baked brie (a favorite Sassy Lady appetizer) for your inclusive booth (think 1940's Brown Derby), and listen to some hot music in a cool setting.

It's not your ordinary charity fundraiser... It's a party, with a cause!
