Help Provide Relief to Nepal
C&P Coffee Company (5612 California AV SW) is hosting a Silent Auction and Fundraising Party on Sunday, May 24th from 3-7pm. Money raised from the event will support ‘Changing Lives Nepal’, an entirely volunteer run nonprofit organization with local connections.
When the earthquake hit, ‘Changing Lives Nepal’ founder, Deana Zabaldo, and assistant leader, Stewart Wolfe, (a West Seattle resident), were guiding their team to Everest Base Camp for a West Seattle based company, Mountain Madness. Fortunately no one on their team was harmed during the earthquake, and now ‘Changing Lives Nepal’ is currently involved in the rebuilding and reconstruction of the homes and schools that need attention.
Come spend the evening with C&P, as they do their part to help make a difference. The auction items are rolling in from business such as Mountain to Sound Outfitters, Thunder Road Guitars, Alki Bike and Board, West Side Music Academy, 8 Bit Arcade, original art work, and so much more! There will be live music, beer and wine, and some surprises!
