WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA – 2/25/10 – The Abbey Food & Bar will host a charity event Toys for Haiti on Sunday February 28th, 2010 in conjunction with sbe to benefit Haitian orphans after the recent earthquake. There are an estimated over 380,000 orphans currently residing in Haiti that need simple aid such as food, water and shelter. “Toys For Haiti” is a toy drive fundraiser for “The Hands and Feet Project”, a non profit organization that is providing hope and aid to Haitian children.

The event will be held from 6-9pm. Guests will bring toys to donate to the orphanage which is situated in a children’s village in Jacmel, Haiti. Toys will also be available for purchase at the event; 100% of the money is going directly towards food and water supplies for the children’s village. All donations will be honored by drink sponsor Krol Vodka; a strong supporter of Haitian relief.

The Jacmel orphanage was started by band, Audio Adrenaline in 2004.
