Pasta, Poker and Pets Party Tonight!
Tonight is Lost Our Home Pet Foundation’s Poker, Pasta and Pet Party and I am really excited to attend. Lost Our Home Pet Foundation is a nonprofit organization who rescue, foster, heal, adopt and advocate for dogs or cats who have been abandoned or left behind due to foreclosure or eviction. They provide options for families to keep their pets. They are also a source for real estate professionals when they encounter a pet in need, while inspiring community action on their behalf.
I believe that this is a truly worthy cause and I am very excited to be a part of it. I have to be honest this is my first event of any kind and I am a little nervous. The board members are all really great and I have no doubt that this will turn out to be a great evening.
What I am looking most forward to besides meeting with everyone is the poker tournament. I invited Jay Thompson the owner of the best damn real estate blog on the planet to come down for the poker tournament, however he had plans already and I didn’t give him really any notice. He did write a very kind post about the organization and went above and beyond by offering an advertisement spot for LOHPF on his blog!
I will write about the event next week and post some pictures too.

Your charitable efforts are much appreciated. May I suggest for your party be held at bigger places to maximize the funds collected? Like Vegas? Good luck to your admirable, worthy cause.

I really hope you had a lot of success with your fund raising. A poker tournament is always a good way to get a lot of people involved in a charitable event.
