The Lauren Project Silent Auction and Light Supper Event
You’re invited to The Lauren Project’s Silent Auction and Light Supper Event, featuring entertainment from local professional jazz musicians and chefs Cathy Broida and Andrew Maxwell’s delectable chilli supper. Donations for the meal will be requested.
Silent auction items include: a Colorado Eagles hockey jersey and tickets, golf at Pelican Lakes, a quilt made especially for the event, a week in Breckenridge for two over the Fourth of July in 2011, professional photography instruction, hand-painted silk scarf, pottery, framed photography, various gift certificates at merchants in Windsor, and much more! And to make things even better, an anonymous donor has offered to match the first $5,000 raised at this event.
This is the very first event held by The Lauren Project. This project was created in memory of 2004 Windsor High School graduate Lauren Johnson, who died tragically from carbon monoxide poisoning on Jan 5, 2009. Lauren was pursuing a master's degree at the Joseph Korbel School of International Studies in Denver, and was dedicated to international human rights.
The Lauren Project, a 501(c)3 organization, aims to provide grants for young people ages 19-35 to do international volunteer mission work, and also supports projects and educational events on the subject of carbon monoxide safety.
The event will be held on October 2nd, from 5:30-8 p.m., at the Pelican Lakes Clubhouse, 1600 Pelican Lakes Point in Windsor. For more details go to www.laurensproject.org.
“This I believe: That every man, woman, and child has the right to opportunity: the opportunity for freedom, the opportunity for education, the opportunity for health care, and the opportunity to enjoy their lives peacefully.”
