The Butterfly Effect Party :: NKECHI LIVE! :: April 1st at Project One SF

Blessings 2 U!

Our April 1st "Vol 1 : The Butterfly Effect Fundraiser Party" is approaching ...

... and I am looking to find even more event sponsors, partners, press, and volunteers to grow this fundraiser party. Please contact me by replying to this e-mail if you can help out in any way.

... So far, I have the honor of collaborating with Evone Garcia, a long time V-Day Supporter and Organizer, Chef Eskender Askeged, founder of Radio Africa & Kitchen, a nomadic African restaurant with sustainable products, methods and yummy healthy food!, Benefit Cosmetics, as well as other event partners and sponsors to make this "Vol 1 :: The Butterfly Effect Fundraiser Party" a night to be more than just remembered. Please join me in rallying to support these charities through this festive opportunity to dress up, eat up, and shake our beauty to the beat. In addition to hosted food, art on display, a fashion show, and a few DJs, my band NKECHI LIVE! A Full Tilt Jam Band Experience will be jamming out two sets that evening. Come join me for any and/or all portions of the evening. I had no idea what this inspired seed in my Spirit was starting, but now that this fundraiser party is in motion, I have been instructed to raise the roof and really go for it on this one, to create a template for future fundraiser parties, and reach for the stars! At a time when times are tight I find myself needing to practice even more generosity than ever before 'cuz it has definitely been known to do a Spirit good. I agree.

In that Spirit, as an FYI, my band NKECHI LIVE! are playing this Saturday at 111 Minna for "La Gran Pachanga" a fundraiser, hosted by Irene' Hernandez-Feliz, for Buena Vista Elementary, the first Spanish Immersion in CA and the second in the USA. Irene' is woman after my own heart who is throwing a party to rally funds and awareness for a great cause too!

So, YES, following are the details for "Vol 1 :: The Butterfly Effect Fundraiser Party" April 1st in San Francisco. Tickets are available on http://TheButterflyEffect.Eventbrite.com  or http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/60529  or find our flier in 944 Magazine and our listing at http://www.944.com/thebutterflyeffect  

Hope to see U there on April 1st at Project One Gallery in Person or in Spirit.
