Reason to Party's (reasontoparty.org) annual Winter Gala, held
Saturday, Feb 4, 2012, attracted more than 700 guests to the W
Hotel for an evening of fantasy and celebration with DJ Dylan
McIntosh of BLVD, sponsored bars, and even an art installation
made entirely of masking tape. Join Reason to Party for monthly
parties around the city, always in support of a great cause!
The event raised over $7000 for Matri, the last AIDS hospice in
San Francisco.
San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom recognized Reason to Party on
December 16th in a proclamation on behalf of the city and county
of San Francisco.
Newsom hailed the young non-profit. "RTP has been leading the way
as a 'best practices' model and has represented true San
Francisco values," said Newsom. "It has been an innovative asset
to the City."
Newsom presented the award to founders Ari Kalfayan and Okko
Grippando before RTP's holiday party to formally acknowledge the
impact the organization has had on the area.
