SKIP1.ORG TO HOST GALA DINNER AND AWARDS EVENT TO RAISE FUNDS

AND HONOR THEIR OWN SKIP & DONATE CHAMPIONS

A Private Evening Gala Skip Dinner Event to Honor Skip1s Exceptional Friends, Families and Volunteer Supporters While Raising Donations for a Much Needed Kitchen in Rwanda

Founder Shelene Bryan to Highlight the Evening by Introducing a Special Guest Who Instigated The Creation of Skip1.org

For Immediate Release:

(Los Angeles, CA)– (Skip1.org (www.skip1.org), the non-profit organization dedicated to promoting Skip Something and Feed a Child, will host a private green-carpet gala evening and awards ceremony on April 6th at 6 p.m. on The Lot in Hollywood (formerly Warner Studios) to honor Skip1.orgs extraordinary supporters (friends, families and volunteers) and raise funds for their newest project, the construction of a new kitchen in Ntunga, Rwanda.

Skip1.org was founded by Shelene Bryan and established on the pretense that small amounts of money can make a HUGE difference to hungry and thirsty children living well below the poverty line, especially in countries like Haiti, Uganda, Peru and Thailand. Skip1.org seeks to encourage people to simply skip & donate for one day a coffee, a pack of gum, a magazine, a car wash, a haircut or a manicure. Anything! Skip1.org strives to bring food and water to children and families in need around the world.

Hosted by Shelene Bryan along with celebrity guests which include and Kym Douglas (The Ellen De Generes Show), Ryan Newman (See Dad Run, Zeke and Luther), Jimmy Pinchack (Enders Game, Men of A Certain Age), Ali Landry (Runaway Hearts, Criminal Minds) and best-selling author, Karen Kingsbury (Chance, The Bridge), popular X-Factor star Drew Ryniewicz (Drew) among others, the evenings events will be highlighted by an awards ceremony, recognizing some of Skip1s faithful (or we can say devoted) skippers and volunteers, followed by a very special introduction to a very special guest.

In addition, the evening, an actual skip & donate event, will raise funds for Skip1.orgs next crucial project, building a kitchen in Ntunga, a small village located in Rwanda. Currently maintained by two women who use outdated appliances in a makeshift kitchen to cook one meal a day for 50 children, the new built kitchen and dining room will be enhanced with all new appliances, pots, pans, plates & dishes and utensils, and food to offer these children with the one meal a day (known as “Break Tea” tea and bread, short cake or an egg) they so desperately need.
