Fundraiser auction and drinks in Portland

 Recently, a friend’s partner, Don, was hospitalized with Stage IV Melanoma (skin cancer). A rather large metastatic tumor was discovered in the right side of his brain. Successfully, the tumor was removed last Thursday. However, he is only at the beginning of a long journey toward the fight against this disease. His Radiation & Chemotherapy treatment should last over a year.

Here is where you can help.

On August 24th, C.C. Slaughters will be holding a fundraiser / silent auction to help raise money to assist with paying his medical bills. Don recently started a new job which only has limited benefits.

If you or anyone you know would be able to donate an item of value for the auction to help raise funds, it would be greatly appreciated. Regardless, please stop by on Sunday (August 24, 2008) between the hours of 4pm -8pm to show your support and have a drink (invite a friend or two or more...).

ETA: One of my masks will be fore sale as well as some of my handmade jewelry. Come take a look at the pretty! If you'd like to see some of my work before going to bid, it's at Masque-Exotique. You'll get a great deal on my work and this is a great opportunity for gift shopping before the holidays!
