I was recently talking with Nancy Largay of Reed Expo about a few business issues. I love Nancy. She’s direct and straightforward — like me. She knows alot of people and is great about connecting like-minded people. Today she sent me the following email.
Its about a “spa style” fundraiser for Haiti next month in NYC. Many of us in the luxury products world give serious dollar value products to celebrities and pretty people. Here is a chance to give to help a human in their time of need. I’ve met Bruce once before. I remember his as straight talking and focused. All the contact info is below. And if you need help organizing a large trade show, Call Nancy!
As with any donation, please carefully research the organization before giving.
