Friday night I shot a charity event in Hollywood for www.causeitsmybirthday.com. Doug Campbell, ring leader of www.mindshare.la, gentleman adventurer www.tuxedotravels.com, and all around generous guy turned 30 last week, so instead of just spending it in a drunken stupor, he used his 1,964 contacts on facebook and beyond for good. He and a friend, Sloane Barrent, also turning 30, set out on a 7-day, 7-city party to help raise money to buy malaria nets for families in Northern Ghana. Don't you feel bad now for just having cake on your birthday? I know I do.
Anyway.... day 7 landed the two back on their home turf in Hollywood for one last blow-out. I was there to capture the last event at Club Ecco. As of today, the two have raised over $17,000 with all proceeds going to buy nets. Cheers to Doug and Sloane for partying their way across America for a good cause!
