FOR THE PEOPLE: HELP SAVE HAITI EVENT

Most of us live in a world where a really bad day consists of morning commute traffic, a slow line at Starbucks or being the 25th in line at a 24 pair sneaker release. We, including me, sometimes take for granted the blessing we are allotted on a daily basis.

Regardless of the location, the horrible tragedy that has taken place in Haiti should open our eyes to real pain and hardship. Many of our friends and colleagues have yet to locate their family members who were affected by the natural disaster. My family in Puerto Rico is but a few hundred miles from where the earthquake hit. I could have easily been someone trying to locate my grandmother— the thought is surreal and makes me very sad and uncomfortable.

At Concepts I have friends I work with directly affected by the tragedy so this has hit home. Another friend of mine, Brek.One – who is Concepts family, is also Haitian. We have decided to work together to do our part with the resources we have. I have reached out to friends in my industry to donate some cool product for our event. We will raffle off most of the product with some pricier rare stuff auctioned off.

This is all going down this Sunday night at the Goodlife in Boston (location details on flyer).

Please join us to bring awareness and raise cash funds for OUR people of Haiti. I want to emphasize the RAISE MONEY part. Buy as many raffle tickets you can and donate as much as possible at the door. It is for a great cause and everything counts.

Brek.One, The Bladerunners and Devlin will be providing the entertainment.

Special Collaboration with Good Wood NYC: Limited edition “Help Save Haiti” pieces to be sold at event.
Special Collaboration with Quinton: Limited edition “Help Save Haiti” snap back cap to be sold at event.
