2 Parties 4 Peace

(sorry, this post is a little late.)

11/8 - Last weekend was filled with partying, but it wasn't your typical carousal. Saturday night was the Patagonica DJ Contest presented by Parties 4 Peace, and on Sunday two friends threw a collaborative birthday party with Beers for Books and Room to Read and JEN. Details below:

Parties 4 Peace

Created by Peace Boat staffer, Emilie McGlone, this organization is dedicated to "people making a better world through music and dance." Proceeds from their events are donated to environmental and social justice causes. The Patagonica Project is one such cause, aimed at preserving Patagonica, Chile.



Beers for Books

For every beer you buy, a dollar (100 yen) of the proceeds goes to printing children's books to promote literacy in developing countries.

Here's a B4B event from 2009:
