This Is A Good Cause: Reason To Party

reason_to_party.jpg

Haven't you heard? Medjool is the new Zeitgeist. It's true. (Well, what with the good folks at 7x7 Magazine now waxing poetic over the Mission cyclist bar these days, even the Routunda at Neiman Marcus could win that title.) So, why not head over to the place you used to hate for a very good cause?

See, Reason To Party will be throwing another smashing bash on hte last Thursday of August to raise much-needed funds for the San Francisco Food Bank, an organization that redistributes excess food to those who need it most. (Sadly, not every soul in the city could score a press pass to SFChefsFoodWine. Remember, scores of people go to bed hungry every night in San Francisco, the alleged food epicenter of the U.S.) And the party will be a regular hoot. There will be no cover, choice DJ sounds, friendly people, free appetizers, and all funds will be raised the evening's liquor sales.

Reason To Party
Thursday, August 27
8 p.m. - 2 a.m.
Medjool (2522 Mission Street)
free (but you must purchase lots of booze!)

In recovery and/or can't make it, but still want to give to San Francisco Food Bank? No problem. You can donate right here.

Medjool is having a benefit for the Brava Theater Monday happy hour as well.

WILL STILL HATE!!!!

you'll drink your mojito and like it.

Come by! I'll buy you one and I bet you'll like it too!

And we will bitch about our surroundings.

Interesting method Douchbag Central has taken up: host benefit parties for Mission organizations, likely in lieu of their support for the needed zoning variances (SRO rooms, rooftop bar, etc.).

That raises an interesting point - is the rooftop bar still going on there? Wasn't that going to get shut down for permit problems or whatever? What happened with that?

And why not? "Community involvement" isn't just for people *you* like.

Thanks for providing the link directly to SF Food Bank donation ...

Meh. Crappy overpriced drinks in plastic cups sipped amid a deafening cacophany of collars popping. Even if it were a Prop 8 fundraiser, which I actually care about... yeah, anyway, it's all about direct donation.

I just want to know where all the uber-hip commenters that dis every faction in SF hang out. I so want to be above it all too.
