Second Trevor Project Pool Party Set For August 20
ALL-TRAVEL.com Expects Fundraiser to Exceed Goals, Headed for $30,000
Los Angeles, CA – August 15, 2005 – Grab your sunscreen and Speedo and prepare to party. The second splashing pool event of the summer of 2005 to benefit the Trevor Project, a non-profit organization promoting acceptance of gay and questioning teenagers and the prevention of suicide among this group, will be held August 20 at a private home in Beverly Hills.
Thanks to the support of sponsors like ALL-TRAVEL.com, the leading provider of personalized travel services to the greater Los Angeles area, fundraising goals for the double-header Paradise Pool Parties have already exceeded goal. After the first party in June, more than $20,000 was donated directly to the Trevor Project to help make a difference and maintain the critically important toll-free, 24/7 Trevor Helpline which has offered strength and hope to thousands of young people nationwide. It has also saved lives.
“The first party was so much fun, as well as a huge success from a fundraising perspective. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the results,” said Eric Maryanov, founder and president of ALL-TRAVEL.com, based on the Westside since 1984. “With this second party, we hope to raise an additional $10,000 to benefit the valuable community efforts of the Trevor Project. If people can not attend the party, we also accept donations.” Maryanov is serving as a co-host of the pool party and was an active member of the 10-person volunteer planning committee for both events.
The Dog Dayz II event will be held from 1 to 6 PM, August 20 at the estate of Marc Ware in Beverly Hills. The pool party is open to the public. Tickets are $40 and can be purchased by calling the Trevor Project offices at 310.271.8845. For additional information, visit http://www.thetrevorproject.org/.
