4th Annual Charity Bartending Event

Join The Salem Team at Around the Corner on May26, 2011 to raise money for A Spark of Hope Foundation. Pediatric blood cancers continue to devastate thousands of children and their families every year. The lives of Hope Fimiani, age 2 and Michael Sparkman, age 7 tragically ended in October 2008 as a result of Leukemia and Lymphoma. During the most trying time of their lives both the Fimiani and Sparkman families made a commitmen...t to each other to start a non-profit foundation to benefit the research of pediatric blood cancers, but more importantly, to help support other families of children with cancer. As a result, A Spark of Hope was born soon after their children died. All tips and donations made in the Warehouse at Around the Corner during our event will go directly to A Spark of Hope Foundation. Plus, Around the Cornerwill donate an additional $500 to the guest bartending group who raised the most money throughout the past 4 months so make sure to bring as many friends as you can!!! There will be a DJ, fun prizes, 50/50 raffle, silent auction, trivia games and Chinese Raffle, and an Ipad 2 giveaway.

Pediatric blood cancers continue to devastate thousands of children and their families every year. The lives of Hope Fimiani, age 2 and Michael Sparkman, age 7, tragically ended in October 2008 as a result of Leukemia and Lymphoma. The non-profit foundation, A SPARK OF HOPE, has recently been established by Michael’s and Hope’s families to provide financial and emotional support to children diagnosed and their families, many of whom are unable to adequately pay for the most appropriate and cutting-edge care. By raising both resources and the public’s awareness of pediatric blood cancers, A SPARK OF HOPE desires to relieve the anguish endured by so many families affected by this terrible disease. Please consider joining us in this endeavor by making a donation to “A SPARK OF HOPE”.
