David Wolfe: Raw Network of Washington's 2nd Annual Fundraiser Gala Event
About the Event
Please join Raw Network of Washington for our 2nd Annual Fundraising Gala, Gourmet Raw Foods Dinner, and Silent Auction! We are pleased to announce that our keynote speaker this year is David "Avocado" Wolfe, World Authority on Chocolate, Raw-Food Nutrition, Superfoods, Herbal Healing, and having the best day EVER!
Our 2008 black-tie event will be held for the second consecutive year at the Columbia Tower Club, one of the world's most renowned private dining clubs. With stunning views of Seattle, Puget Sound, and the surrounding snow-capped mountains, this event will be an awe-inspiring night to remember. The evening will feature a silent auction, a 4-course gourmet raw foods dinner prepared by the chefs of the Columbia Tower Club, and event attendees will have a chance to win a one-on-one private meal with David Wolfe the following day. Last year's silent auction included raw-friendly contributors such as Hippocrates Health Institute, Sunfood Nutrition, E3Live, VegNews Magazine, Paul Nison, Victoria Boutenko, HealthForce Nutritionals, Maya Whole Health Studio, Chaco Canyon Cafe, RawVegan Source, Sidecar for Pigs Peace, and much, much more! We were able to raise $15,000 last year toward our goal of opening the world's first raw foods community center - and we still need to raise another $85,000 to reach our goal!
