HAIRI RELIEF FUND RAISING EVENTS AROUND NYC

Below are a list of upcoming fundraising events and talks in New York City. If you would like us to post an event on our blog and Google Calendar, please email us at Students4Ayiti@gmail.com

JEANS FOR TEENS

Welcome to the third annual Teens for Jeans drive, the campaign that empowers YOU to collect jeans for homeless teens.

Just drop off any pair of your gently worn jeans to any AĆ©ropostale store between January 19th and February 14th and we'll make sure they get donated to a local homeless shelter or charity.

To say thanks, AĆ©ropostale will give you an additional 25% off your next pair of jeans.

Last year you helped us collect over 200,000 pairs and this year we want to top that, so start collecting today!

The first 100,000 pairs of jeans collected will be sent to support homeless teens in Haiti.

There are 3 listings for Aeropostale in NYC where you can drop off your jeans!

A message from Teens for Jeans:

HAITIAN FUNDRAISING DINNER

As you know, the people of Haiti are in dire need of basic resources for survival. Come out experience some great Haitian food, Haitian music, a short documentary from a student volunteer, socialize with faculty, and contribute to the relief efforts in Haiti. CDM, P&S, Public Health, and Nursing students will be present.

A minimum $10 donation is necessary to attend this event. All contributions will go to the Canadian chapter of "Doctors Without Borders" because the Canadian government is currently matching all donations made to Canadian Organizations. This means your $10 donation will become a $20 donation to the organization. Doctors without Borders is currently located in Haiti so the money raised would go directly to medicine, first aid, etc.

DATE: February 12, 2010
TIME: 6PM-8PM
LOCATION: TBA
