How I did it: Ppl either had to bring a book or an extra 5 dollars as a part of admission. Really easy, everyone loved it, and helped out a great cause. www.rif.org for more info or to donate online. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Spring break, senior year in college ('03), my two best friends and my roommate went down to Costa Rica-- open air bar right on the beach, 20 yds from the water, a few tequila shots later-- the locals (including a woman we swear was a local hooker) took us under their wing and put us through our paces. Easily one of the top 20 nights of my life. Read how I did it…
Great read. Read this while some girlfriends and I were in Cannes for my best friend’s wedding. Really fun reading a story that mentions places you’re visiting…just 80 odd years later…wow…80 years…what a strange/bittersweet idea to ruminate on. It really all is just that fleeting. :)

One of the board members donated her beautiful new apt for the location, board members all brought a bottle of wine or an app and we invited all the members of the alumni assoc & had it open for friends as well—terrific time had by all!!! Entry = 5 dollars or 2 cans of food. I made a bunch of choc chip cookies, brownies, and caramels and packaged them up in take out boxes for raffle prizes. Entry into the raffle: add’l $5 or add’l 5 cans of food. And I donated a bottle of nice champagne, to go to the person who donated the most. We’ll definitely be doing this Wine Tasting/Canned Food Drive Event again next year—highly recommend!!!
End result: 150 lbs of food & $60 donated to the SF Food Bank!!!
