Greetings TGIFguide readers, and happy New Year!

I’m excited to announce that Brittany “Bella” Graham and I have  partnered with an amazing organization, Firme Foundation, to bring in the new year by giving back.

It’s been 4 years since the earthquake in Haiti, and I’m telling you, I’ve of course always regarded donating to Haiti as a great cause (just like the tragedies in the Philippines, Japan, etc) but it was never that close to home for me until I saw the looks on the faces of the people that Firme Foundation has helped, and what good they are doing in the world. Check out these photos from a fire they helped put out at a family’s house :

It doesn’t get much more “real” than that – and in order to raise funds for their next trip to Haiti this February, I’m excited to invite you all to a night of fashion, music and art this Sunday, January 12th, which is the anniversary date of the earthquake.
