A Picture Saves A Thousand Lives

Posted by Carrie on Saturday March 6th, 2010 at 12:28

A charity auction for Haiti earthquake victims. Cortes de Cima is happy to be able to partner once again with our friends and the much respected  Rose Charities for another good cause, following the success of  BeBare, the naughtiest charity auction. Save the date! Thursday March 18th at the Milk Gallery, NY.

FOTORELIEF, an all-volunteer organization and a veteran of fundraising auctions, and A Milk Gallery Project in New York organizes “A Picture Saves A Thousand Lives” silent photo auction event to contribute to the Haitian earthquake relief effort through ROSE Charities. Over 100 of the world’s most respected fashion and fine art photographers are each donating a photograph to be exhibited and auctioned off that evening, with the opening bids ranging from $300 to $10,000. Invited guests – art patrons, collectors, celebrities, and the fashion & fine art photography world elite – will have the opportunity to take home an important work of art, while making an invaluable contribution to the relief effort. As in the earlier events, we will be donating Chaminé to be served during the evening.  All of the proceeds from the auction will go to ROSE Charities, to provide long-term care and rehabilitation for the survivors of the Haitian earthquake.

Noot Seear, international top model, actress and President of ROSE Charities US commented, “After the attention wanes and the media has decamped, there will still be years of rehabilitation and reconstruction needed for the Haitian people. The doctors, therapists and volunteers that generously donate their time and purpose, through ROSE Charities, have a history of that dedication.” Foto below with Noot Seear from BeBare Oct 2008 in NY.
