I remember as a kid during Lent we used to get "Operation Rice Bowl", which was simply every family got a cardboard box in which they threw loose change all through Lent, at the end the box was counted and the money sent to some foreign country.
Last year at Downcity I began 'Project Downcity', which is a fundraiser for Aids Care Ocean State. Large barrels are placed on the bar, and will remain up through the entire season of Lent. At the Hi Tini on May 4th Kitty will be given a cheack for the amount of money that is in these two barrels. This money comes from staff, customers, everybody.
When you're in Downcity between now and May please throw some money in these barrels. Imagine if everyone who came through those doors threw just a dollar or two in...we'de make a fortune.
Aids Care Ocean State is a very important organization. They help change the lives of people who are dealing with living with HIV/AIDS. They make it possible for those of us who don't have it to get free testing whenever we want it. They work tirelessly to help prevent it's spread in every way they can think of. Your dollar makes a difference, so please help as once again we begin, "Project Downcity".
