“Until The Violence Stops” by The DEBS NYC and Yoshi RECAP!

Posted in Events by yoshi on June 19, 2011

Almost 2 weeks ago (sorry I’ve been so busy =x), Susana and I pulled together an amazing event that brought together our friends as well as new friends to support the efforts of V-Day – the global movement to end violence against women and girls. We were also blessed by the attendance of a few members from Girls Write Now.

Hot Blondie Bakery provided desserts and we grubbed on skewers, crab rolls, and more from Mamajuana!

As our friends arrived, our guest speakers Kerin, Hyun, Ruby and Julie were there to help greet and prep for their speeches. Suz was there to capture everything on film =) Thanks Suz!!!

We so very very VERY happy and thankful for everyone who showed up to support a great cause. Can’t wait til the next one!

*Waiting for the video recap to give you all a better sense of the evening’s festivities*

Thanks to the following sponsors who provided gifts for our goodie bags and giveaways:

Rare Salon

SPECIAL THANKS to Reflections Yoga Studio for donating their beautiful space!

*Thanks Catzie and Louise for sharing your photos!
