BB Galas and Female A-Team Collaborates with HBO's Mission Possible New York City Charity Assisting Children with HIV/AIDS

Inaugural CLAIR.nyc event at Fashion 40 Lounge to benefit disadvantaged children through Mustard Seed Communities.

New York, NY, June 24, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Through an annual service trip in conjunction with Mustard Seed Communities, over 20 HBO employees travel hundreds of miles to provide medicine, food and shelter to children whose parents have abandoned them due to hardship, severe disabilities, or infection with disease such as HIV/AIDS.

In an effort to offset the cost of volunteer expenses, allowing them to focus on serving the community in need with Mustard Seeds, CLAIR.nyc is hosting a fundraiser Thursday, June 30th at New York's Fashion Forty Lounge from 6p-10p.

Guests are asked to give a $15 donation towards Mission Possible NYC as they prepare to service displaced Haitian children who are currently in orphanages in the Dominican Republic. Your $15 donation will garner a 2-for-1 cocktail wristband as well as a raffle entry for donated prizes.

Although each volunteer raises funds individually for supplies and expenses, CLAIR.nyc is excited to do their part to help each of the volunteers meet and exceed their goals. In addition to your $15 donation, there will be a drop-off area for new (or very gently used) clothing and toys as well.
