HONOLULU – RAGE FOR HAITI is a way to raise awareness of the catastrophic earthquake that has killed thousands of people in Haiti. We’re just a group of girls who wanted to get involved in some shape or form to raise money for the victims of Haiti. Figured everyone likes to go out, so why not for a good cause?! Rage for Haiti is the perfect solution to get the community involved. 100% of door proceeds and all monies raised through the silent and live auction will be donated to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund (http://clintonbushhaitifund.org).

At President Obama’s request, President Clinton and President Bush have partnered up to help with the relief efforts in Haiti. The Clinton Bush Haiti Fund will work to provide immediate relief and long-term support to earthquake survivor and channel the collective goodwill around the globe to help the people of Haiti rebuild their cities, their neighborhoods, and their families.

A silent and live auction will be held at Soho from 7-9P with great items such as Zak Noyle photography, surf boards, gift certificates from local businesses, concert tickets (courtesy of BAMP productions), superb wine, and more!! An amazing live auction will be held from 9-930P where a few lovely ladies have volunteered to be auctioned off for dates!!!!

ONE night, THREE venues, GREAT music, AMAZING auction items, and the gift of GIVING to a great cause all for only $15 at the door or $10 presale (available at UH Campus Center, Manifest, and Fitted)!! 100% is going to ClintonBushHaitiFund. It’s a small gesture but a GREAT way to everyone involved and HELP rebuild lives in a country that desperately needs help right NOW!!

I could go an give you an abbreviated rehashing of Lenn Sakata’s wikipedia page, but that where’s the fun in that-you could do that yourself. Lenn Sakata to Hawaii is the story of “local boy making it big”. As a utility middle-infielder for his ten year major league career, Sakata is most remembered by die-hard baseball fans as having his hand in deciding one of the best baseball games in history.
Here is a great account of said game: “The Greatest Game Never Seen”.
A walk-off 3-run homer in the bottom of the 10th inning-heroics courtesy of not Eddie Murray or Cal Ripken Jr. but Lenn Sakata, people! He also gets bonus points for being on the ’80s glasses all-star team-those things are serious!
