2nd Annual Eco-Lifestyle Gala Buzz....
Wednesday, April 20, 2011 at 10:09AM Hi Green Drinkers! Buzz is all around us for the 2nd Annual Eco-Lifestyle Gala coming up on May 19th, 2011! Check out our recent press release below and see our recent article in the Sun Sentinel:
Fort Lauderdale, Fla., April 14, 2011 – South Florida Green Drinks (http://www.southfloridagreendrinks.org), an environmental non-profit group, recently announced its 2nd Annual Eco-Lifestyle Gala, scheduled to take place Thursday, May 19 at the exclusive Boca Raton Resort & Club. The event is designed to honor environmental stewardship and support socially conscious causes through fundraising and community support. This year, Green Drinks will recognize celebrity actress and philanthropist, Patricia Arquette, with its prestigious Eco-Lifestyle Pioneer Award for her work with GiveLove, a non-profit Haiti relief organization she founded in 2010. Arquette will serve as the honorary hostess of Green Drinks’ 2011 Eco-Lifestyle Gala. The event will support GiveLove’s work to improve housing and sanitary conditions in Haiti, as well as Global Green USA’s greener rebuilding efforts in Haiti.
"I am very honored to be recognized by South Florida Green Drinks with the Eco-Lifestyle Pioneer Award,” Arquettte states. “GiveLove has been the most meaningful work of my life. The financial support of this event will afford our organization the ability to continue driving much needed Eco-Sanitation and Green Housing Solutions in Haiti. To date, we have housed 170 children, built numerous classrooms and provided ongoing sanitation treatment for over 1000 people. I’m very excited to meet the forward thinking donors of South Florida, which has a strong Haitian community, and to work together to make a significant positive and lasting contribution to the people of Haiti."
Founded by Patricia Arquette and Rosetta Millington-Getty, GiveLove develops temporary housing solutions and improved sanitation systems in Haiti, since the poverty stricken country was hit by a catastrophic magnitude 7.0 M earthquake in 2010. Through technical support and training, GiveLove promotes ecological sanitation and small-scale projects to hygienically treat and recycle human and organic waste at schools and community-based compost centers throughout Haiti.
“We’re delighted to have the opportunity to honor Patricia Arquette and GiveLove for their socially conscious commitment to the relief efforts in Haiti,” Marci Zaroff, co-founder and chairman of South Florida Green Drinks, states. “Their support continues to address the needs of so many Haitian’s who were devastated by the 2010 earthquake. Her selfless dedication to improving their quality of life and the environment in Haiti makes her the perfect fit for the 2011 Eco-Lifestyle Pioneer Award.”
Last year, South Florida Green Drinks’ inaugural Eco-Lifestyle Gala honored environmental advocate, model and celebrity, Lauren Bush, who received the 2010 Eco-Lifestyle Pioneer Award; serving as the event’s honorary host. It attracted 300 guests and raised money for Global Green USA and greener rebuilding initiatives in Haiti, in partnership with the Office Depot Foundation.
Once again, Global Green USA and The Office Depot Foundation are partnering with Green Drinks’ 2nd Annual Eco-Lifestyle Gala, which is anticipated to attract more than 500 guests to the exclusive Boca Raton Resort & Club. The evening boasts an impressive line-up of live musicians and entertainers, including NYC Comedian Jessica Kirson, DJ Mark Leventhal, and renowned Native Rock musician, Robby Romero. Tickets for Drinks’ 2nd Annual Eco-Lifestyle Gala are $75 per individual, $125 per couple and tables of 10 can be purchased for $500.
There are a range of sponsorship opportunities available, from Presenting Sponsor to Exhibitor and Gift Bag Sponsors.
