Solving Kids Cancer 4th Annual Gala
Posted on April 30, 2013 - Filed Under BE Giving, Charity, Nigel Barker Today
Solving Kids’ Cancer is committed to significantly improving survivorship of the deadliest childhood cancers. They find, fund, and manage clinical trials and scientific programs to rapidly develop the most effective treatments and cures. Since our inception in 2007, SKC has managed 20 research projects that have resulted in 12 new treatments for children and adolescents with cancers that have, at best, a 40% survival rate. 100% of all general donations are used to fund clinical trial research with the vision of expanding the menu of effective treatments and making survival a reality for all children.
Each May, their annual Spring Celebration is a memorable and poignant evening celebrating children
and the renewal of spring, while underscoring SKC’s core vision that “every kid deserves to grow up.”
This year Crissy and I are hosting the Spring Celebration which raises significant funding for the creation of new treatment options for children with cancer.
SKC’s Fourth Annual Spring Celebration will be held on Tuesday, May 7, 2013, 6:30 pm at the elegant 583 Park.
We are pleased to announce that our 2013 Honorees will be Gabby Karan De Felice and Bonnie Young. Both philanthopic mothers, these women have been steadfast supporters since our inception.
If attending the event, $200/attendee is the non-deductible portion of your donation.
If not attending, 100% of your donation is deductible.

Dreams Are Not Forgotten
Posted on March 31, 2013 - Filed Under BE Giving, Charity, Edeyo, Film, NB Videos, Travel Shoots
Dreams are Not Forgotten is my latest documentary film that captures the heart and soul of an inspiring community in the slums of Bel Air in post-earthquake, Haiti. It’s an intimate glimpse of life, concentrating on the details that we all share in common, despite living worlds apart. The film is set in the shantytown of Bel Air in Port-au-Prince and witnessed through the lives of three Haitians. Roodline is an abandoned 13-year-old girl who sleeps on the floor in a make-shift tent with four other people and wants to be a nurse when she grows up, Leslie is a 24-year-old self-proclaimed vagabond trying to figure out who he is and who he wants to be and Roland is a 64-year-old Iron Worker, struggling to get by and reflecting back on better times in Haiti?s colorful past. Dreams are Not Forgotten is a story of struggle and hope, pride and potential and explores the strength and courage of the human condition against all odds.
