WHAT'S THIS ALL FOR??
I've decided to do some good deeds in the off-season. I am fundraising for HFH, which is a charity organization that builds homes to help hardworking, limited-income families. Later on this year, I will be building a new home for a well-deserved lucky family.
We will be hosting a series of awesome fundraising events in downtown LA, and you are invited to attend! Every dollar counts, 100% of proceeds from all events will go straight to HFH!
(These events are all 21+, sorry youngies <3)**Remember to contact Zina Hwang through Facebook or her email for questions about any these events, where to park in downtown LA, etc.**
