Gulf Coast Fund Benefit (Hosted by Savory Thymes)
The BP oil drilling disaster has become one of the most devastating environmental disaster in US history. Gulf Coast communities are already feeling the economic and ecological effects of the disaster, and the worst is yet to come.
Savory Thymes and the Gulf Coast Fund for Community Renewal and Ecological Health invite you to save the date for Sunday, October 10, 2010 for the Gulf Coast Fund Benefit Fundraiser. Join us for an evening of friends, food, and music in celebration of the rich culture and history of the gulf coast at Hillside Gardens in Mill Valley. All proceeds will support communities on the front-lines of the BP oil disaster and working for a just and sustainable Gulf Coast.
