Adams Morgan Community Hosts Fundraisers for Avalon Residents
On Monday, October 1, 2007 a devastating four-alarm fire destroyed the Avalon Condominium at 2627 Adams Mill Road NW, leaving approximately 50 residents homeless. The event itself, and the additional safety concerns that have been highlighted in its aftermath, have rocked the Adams Morgan community of Washington DC. Neighbors and friends in the community have organized a fundraiser happy-hour, the proceeds of which will go to the Avalon Fire Relief fund that will directly benefit the residents of the Avalon in their time of need. The fundraiser will take place:
Thursday, October 11, 2007
6 to 9 p.m.
at
18th and Red
Restaurant and Bar
(2436 18th Street, NW Washington DC 20009 - on 18th between Columbia and Belmont)
A $10 donation at the door gets you free food, drink specials, and fabulous prizes donated by local businesses.
Here's a link to the flyer about the happy hour that was distributed this weekend. Please note that the sponsors on the flyer are limited to the ones we were able to contact early on, and the full list can be seen on the sponsor page.
Thanks to the +400 people who showed up Thursday Night!
