Fashion for Paws, April 10 at the Italian Embassy
Washington Life magazine named the Fashion for Paws Runway Show the #1 Fashion Event of 2009 in your “Social Year in Review,” prime-time television special on the CW Network!
I'm on the committee for Fashion for Paws and got 8 models involved: Lena Aburdene, Erik Holzherr, Barbara Merola, Dr. Dondi Dahlgaard, Cara Townsend, Donna Donella, Makeda Saggau-Sackey, and Taryn Fielder. To attend the event, tickets cost $85. I kindly request you buy your tickets through the models I got invovled. They have to raise $3,000 to walk in the runnway show. Donations are tax deductible.
All proceeds from the Fashion for Paws Runway Show directly benefit the more than 30,000 homeless, lost, neglected and abused animals WHS cares for each year in the Washington, DC region, as well as supports vital programs such as Humane Education, Human-Animal Rehabilitation, Humane Law Enforcement, low-cost spay/neuter, sheltering and adoption.
The Fashion for Paws Runway Show includes 3 different categories of models walking the runway. The heart and soul of the event are the fundraising models who agree to raise funds in the weeks leading up to the fashion show and participate in a friendly fundraising competition. The top male and female fundraiser will be awarded the title “Model Washingtonian of the Year,” on the runway on April 10th.

Play- Scapino! at The Little Theater in Alexandria, VA
Come see my fellow improv actor Joseph Randazzo perform in Scapino!
January 16 – February 6, 2010
Go to Gold Star for good deals on tickets:
http://www.goldstar.com/events/alexandria-va/scapino.html
The Little Theatre presents a madcap comedy based loosely on a play by Moliere. Set in modern Naples, Scapino! begins with two young men who are left by their miserly fathers in the care of inattentive servants. Naturally, trouble ensues, and the play pits servants against masters, sons against fathers, and even throws in romance, gypsies, chase scenes and more.
