lulu in the city: this Thursday! Festa Brasileira: Party to save Brazil's Atlantic Forest!

Hey there!

I hope you will get your tickets today to join me at YPG's gala THIS THURSDAY, 3/19. Festa Brasileira: the 2009 Nature Conservancy Young Professionals Group Benefit Event seeks to aid the TNC's "Plant a Billion Trees" mission, specifically the Atlantic Forest of Brazil.

Festa Brasileira will feature an open bar, hors d' oeuvres, live music and a silent auction. Last year's event attracted over 400 of NYC's best young professionals and helped raise over $55,000 for Conservancy supported causes. This year's economic environment makes your support even more important.

The Nature Conservancy's Young Professionals Group (YPG) brings together a cross-section of the city's brightest men and women who share a love of nature, a concern for the environment, and a belief that hope and action are indispensable to make a difference. Our goal in New York is to ensure that our peers and the next generation of New Yorkers learn about and participate in conservation activities at a local, regional and global level.
