The Yelp Carnivale for a Cause at Salvage One
For Mardi Gras we teamed up with the lovely folks at Yelp.com and Salvage One to throw a Carnivale themed fundraiser for Haiti!
Salvage One is one of the most unique and interesting event spaces in Chicago and it provided a fabulous backdrop for this event. (Planning a wedding, fundraiser, corporate event or other party? Definitely give Sara a call and check it out!)
Attendees posed for their choice of color or black & white photobooth pics in the ShutterBooth and tried out their “action moves” in the Actionbooth. Musical entertainment was provided by D~Lux Mizik (and Midwest Kompas band) and the dance troupe Chi~Caribena performed a dance piece for the event. In addition to the authentic music and photo ops, Chef JP Nettles’ Ambrosia Experience served an assortment of {delicious!} Haitan and Carribean treats. Proximo Spirits generously provided Kraken Rum, 1800 Silver Tequila, Three Olives new “Rangtang” Vodka and Shiner Bock & Trumer Pils beers for the event.
Attendees purchased tickets for the event and participated in a silent auction and raffle to raise money for Yele Haiti & L’Hôpital de la Communauté Haïtienne (The Community Hospital of Haiti) in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Thanks to everyone who made it out for the event! We enjoyed sponsoring such a fun event for a great cause!
