Last week Carmen and I started visiting some of Houston’s cafes… well, more like the community boards inside these cafes to hang up our posters for Toast and Treasures. We're wanting to spread the word about the official kickoff party for the Race Against Violence. Our 1st Annual Toast and Treasures will be a night full of delicious and unique signature cocktails, appetizing hors d’oeuvres and exciting and fun treasures! Guests will enjoy being serenaded by live music, and they’ll also have the opportunity to put on boas, or try on hats while taking comical pictures in an old-fashioned photo booth. Nto be forgotten is the chance to participate in the silent auction of treasures, ranging from a getaway to the luxurious Granduca Hotel to receiving personal training from a top Houston trainer!
Money raised from the evening will benefit the Houston Area Women's Center.We are excited with this event as this is first big event that VIDA is organizing in our fourth month of life…
In our poster- & flyer-hanging adventure we came across some nice surprises… one of them was finding out that we are famous on Facebook! I gave a flyer to a young man who was in line to buy coffee… since we were buying coffee too, I thought “hmmm... I can hand out some flyers to these people… what is the worse that could happen?" ...back to the story… I gave the guy our flyer, and he told us that he recognized it because someone sent the Toast and Treasures invitation on Facebook... that just made our day!!! (Especially since we didn't even know this guy!) Then, while visiting a Café in the Heights to put up more posters, we saw that somebody had already placed posters in that café… Niceeeee!! What a lovely surprise!
This week we will continue our poster-hanging as we enjoy trying different coffee flavors, hoping to discover more nice surprises….
