Archives for April 2010

This year will mark the third annual “Bringing Down the House” event in Northern Colorado.  Two local charities, Neighbor to Neighbor and Restoration Now, will benefit from the night.

The last two years have posted impressive numbers, both in attendees and in dollars raised.   Our committee is looking forward to an even better 2010!  The evening features a silent auction, live entertainment, a raffle, food and drinks.  Not only do guests have a fabulous time, they benefit two local charities while they enjoy the night!

There are numerous ways people can get involved, such as donating for the auction, sponsoring the event for $100 (which includes two tickets and marketing), purchasing raffle tickets or attending for only $25.

For information on how to participate in ‘Bringing Down the House’, please contact me at charityvermeer@gmail.com.
