Launch Green Festival Weekend with Hurricane Sandy Benefit, Celebrating Launch of SIIR Concept, at HUB San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO – November 5, 2012 Join SIIR and Green Festival on Friday, November 9th at HUB San Francisco, as they join forces with CraigConnects and Hurricane Sandy Relief agencies to unite the EcoSystem of green, social entrepreneurs and impact funders, for a very special Hurricane Sandy Relief event. This event will also serve as the Official SF Green Festival pre-party and concept launch of SIIR!
The event was originally planned as the Concept Launch of the Social Innovators & Investors Resource (SIIR) and the Official Pre-Party for the San Francisco Green Festival Weekend. But, when news of Hurricane Sandy’s devastating effect reached the Bay Area, Carla Mays knew plans had to change. According to Ms. Mays, “There is no better way for us to support these efforts than to unite the Bay Area Social Innovation and Entrepreneurship EcoSystem than by making a tremendous impact on the lives of our families and friends on the East Coast during their time of need.”
This fun, interactive event is the first time SIIR is uniting innovators and entrepreneurs in arts, education, sustainable food, eco-entertainment, urban and futurism for a unique look into social capital markets. Event Partners: Bay Area Green Tours, Green Jobs Network, Food Shift, Slow Money, Slow Food, Fair Trade USA and Fair Trade Floral.
All tickets are $20 and include admission to the Green Festival. All proceeds will go to non-profit disaster relief agencies directly involved with Hurricane Sandy Relief.
