Haiti Relief DinnerIn response to the recent tragedy in Haiti,
Campagne in Seattle invites you and your friends to attend a fundraising three-course Bouillabaisse dinner on Monday night,
January 25th, 2010.
For dinner and wine pairing they suggest a minimum donation of $100 per person, 100% of which will be donated to
Doctors Without Borders, a charity who has had a presence in Haiti for the past 19 years.
Campagne’s service and kitchen staff have volunteered their time to make this as effective a fundraiser as possible. Even the suppliers of the restaurant have offered to support with donations of product and the Inn at the Market will generously match the first $5,000 that is raised.
First course: Salade verte au chèvre chaud
Second course: Chef Daisley Gordon’s renowned Bouillabaisse
Third course: Galette des Rois
Wines will be donated for the first and second courses.
Seatings begin at 5:30pm. Space is limited so please make your reservation soon to help make a real difference for the victims of this tragedy. Ph# 206.728.2800.
