Our personal message:

Please join us on Saturday April 12 for a fundraiser to benefit the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. The fundraiser will be held at Honey, 243 W. 14th St., from 9 – 11 p.m. We are requesting a donation of $25 that will go directly to the charity, and there will be free appetizers, $3 domestic beers, $4 vodka drinks, and $5 appletinis and cosmos.

We are dedicating the fundraiser—which we hope will become an annual event—to the memory of Green Beret Staff Sergeant Joseph Curreri, who tragically died in a diving accident in October while deployed in the Philippines in the fight against global terrorism.

Joe will always be remembered as a loyal and loving husband, son, brother and friend. We hope that this event will give us the opportunity to remember the great man that he was and to help out an organization that he passionately supported.

For more information, please contact Josh Kaplan at joshskaplan@gmail.com or Jay Sayko at j_sayko@hotmail.com
