I know many of you are gearing up to leave for the playa, but for those of you who will be sticking around and looking for something cool to do. Please join me and some friends on September 8th from 11:00AM until 3:00PM in Venice at the Vera Davis Center. My foundation is hosting it’s Do Something Saturday project. For information and details on how you can get involved, please shoot me a message here on tribe or by email kengikat@gmail.com. My friend Karen who owns Café Buna is providing 150 meals for this event. I am now hoping to supply clean clothes and shoes in good condition. The push is also on to provide 150 Do Something Kits. If you didn’t make the trek out to the playa, then please join me and some cool friends in a day of helping those who have less. Do Something Kit supplies include: • New pairs of socks • Granola, power, protein or cliff bars • bar soap or body wash • hand or face towels • tooth brushes and tooth paste • mouth wash • deodorant • bottle water • beanies (hats) • shampoo and conditioner • hand lotion • large zip lock bags (all items should be travel size so they can fit into the large zip lock bag) Your continued donations of these items provide homeless people in the Los Angeles Area the opportunity to keep themselves clean and groomed. It has been our experience that this greatly contributes to the likelihood of someone getting a job and become self-sufficient. The best place to get these items is from the 99 cent store or from the 99 cent area of all Target store. I hope to see you at the event.
