A great way to GIVE, RECEIVE, and END the weekend!

Hey everyone, Liana here, your chief stylist at B.Youneek!

I just wanted to share with all of you a super fun event I went to two weekends ago that B.Youneek was a part of that supported helping children who battle cancer, called the Francesco Loccisano Foundation for pediatric cancer chinese auction.  The event was hosted by Natalie Licini, founder of Chaata.com (an online community for moms), and PR by Lisa Ajiello founder of Eyeprmedia.com.  The event was at the Excelsior Grand in Staten Island NY and doors opened to a flood of people, excited to be involved with raffles, a 50/50, great food, amazing music, and great company, all brought together for a good cause!  Music was provided by DJ Graphic George of Graphicgeorge.com and photography provided by Wai Ng by weddingflair.com.  I must say I  had a really fun time at this event!  There were some really cool prizes that people won; Massages, gift baskets, spiritual healing sessions, a B.YOUneek styling package, professional photography pictures, celebrity chef dinner, actor chairs from the movie American Gangster (pretty cool) and even a one week paid vacation to Florida and much more!  There were so many amazing prizes, everyone went home with something, including me!  I definitely recommend everyone to get involved with charity events like this, ultimately your money goes toward a good cause, and you get to have fun and meet cool people along the way!  Seriously, what  a better way to end my weekend!  I can't wait for the next charity event!  For those of you who want to be a part of something like this, check out Chaata.com for more info and the francesco loccisano foundation to make a donation http://www.frankiesmission.org  Check out the pics from the event, hope you like!
