Denver, CO – A cry for clean drinking water, students from the Colorado School of Healing Arts will be hosting a fundraiser on Saturday, February 20th from 12:00-4:00pm at the Holiday Chalet, a Victorian B&B (www.HolidayChalet.com) located at 1820 East Colfax in Denver.
Students will be giving ½ hour ($45.00) or whole hour ($80.00) full body Swedish massages at the Holiday Chalet. All proceeds from the fundraiser will go directly to Engineers without Borders, a group whose mission it is to provide drinking water to countries all around the world! Funds are needed to continue the effort.
“The Holiday Chalet has a tea room where participants can enjoy our signature Tea’s and homemade scones, before or after the massage,” explains Holiday Chalet owner Crystal Sharp,” massages will take place in private guest rooms we’ve set aside specifically for this event. “
Participants will be pampered while funds are being raised to help those in need.
“Across the world we hear daily the struggle of poor countries to survive. Though as students we may not have deep pockets what we do have is a skill that can be shared – massage therapy,” shares student and event coordinator Ginger Vincent.
Reservations are required. Call Ginger for reservations or questions at (541) 915-0912. For more information Click here for the flyer.

Greetings, Adams Communication & Engineering Technology (ACET), Inc. has received an immediate request to provide assistance to the devastation from the recent earthquake that has befallen the nation of Haiti. We are looking for anyone interested in going to Haiti to help for a 3- 6 month period. There are no particular skills sets defined at this point, except the willingness to help wherever needed. We will be presenting folks and highlighting their unique skills and trade qualifications, so if the opportunity to help in your area exists – it will be noted and presented. As you can well imagine, any skill that you may have – can be of great help.
Typical skill sets needed:
- Carpenters

THIS IS NOT A VOLUNTEER REQUEST – you will be paid for the work you do. This is a temporary employment assignment that will include travel, expenses, remuneration with an understanding that housing accommodations will be very basic.

If you are seriously interested or know of someone who would be interested – please email Onekqua Beverly (otbeverly@adamscomm.com) ASAP, and I will provide more details for you at that time.
