I received the following message earlier today from Hopworks about their Three Days for Haiti event:
Hopworks Urban Brewery is hosting “3 Days for Haiti”. HUB will donate 20% of the total sales for the 3 days starting Monday 1/25 and continuing through Wednesday 1/27.
HUB has chosen 3 NW non-profit groups to support in their recovery efforts in Haiti. Medical Teams International (NW)- www.medicalteams.org, Sun Energy Power International- www.sunepi.org This NW non- profit had people in Haiti working on a solar project at the time of the earthquake. Walt Ratterman the president of SEPI and NW resident is still currently missing in Haiti. His daughter Briana Ratterman is part of the HUB family. Knightsbridge- www.kbi.org This NW group is currently in Haiti assisting in search and recovery efforts.
Think Globally act Locally, Help make the World a better place.
I want to point out that HUB is giving 20% of total sales, not profit, which is a very generous undertaking. I sent an e-mail to Ben a while ago to ask if they are also accepting direct donations on behalf of their organizations. I have not heard back from him yet, but will update this post when I do.
Cheers!
