Many of you know of the Planet Project in Burma/Thailand. We are working to build a larger hostel for children who have been displaced by the atrocities committed against them by the Burma Army/Government. We have 50 children that you can sponsor to ensure they get food, clothing, shelter and education. Go to http://planetchanger.com for more information.
One Non profit that we are teamed up with in Thailand and Burma is the Jericho Alliance, lead by George and Cindy Tronsrue. Right now they are working on building a medical clinic and have some incredible goals of impacting and aiding the oppressed people of Burma, and I am proud to be associated with them.
One way that you can help is coming up on September 10th is by attending a "pre-opening" for a new restaurant in Bellevue, WA. called "John Howie Steak. John Howie has agreed to give 100% of the money from this evenings dinner and event to help to make an impact in Burma through The Jericho Alliance Foundation!
You will enjoy a range of signature dishes by the talented Chef John Howie in this uniquely premiere
steak house, where USDA prime beef will be grilled over mesquite coals. Other incredible dinner
options will also be available. Venue, located in the chic Bravern Building, features two private
dining rooms, a piano lounge, the Northwest’s best selection of single malt scotches and cognacs
and a grand selection of wines from the Northwest and around the world.
This is a insider opportunity to attend a mock service, where you will see firsthand how a restaurant
prepares to open. In order for the staff to have a complete “dress rehearsal” we will reserve tables
of 2 and 4, at specific times. Guests will be ordering from menu cards of select items from the
regular menu, specially prepared for each table. Each diner at the table will experience something
different and we encourage you to sample your tablemate’s meal too! See below for more details.
I hope you can make it, below is a PDF file with the invitation and reservation information, as well as a PDF with information about the atrocities happening in Burma right now!
