Because of the recent snow and ice storm, we're throwing a party, a big party, a fantastic party and you're invited... AGAIN! You gotta show up at VZD's 8:00 PM, February 5th because all proceeds from this party go to the relief efforts in Haiti!

ProjectOKC and DJ. Neu are teaming up to bring you comedy, live music and an art show all in the name of Raising Haiti. It's simple, we're pulling our friends together, pooling our money and doing GOOD.

VZD's Restaurant & Club serves up great food and strong drink in a non-smoking environment. Invite your friends, bring some cash and prepare to hang out with others in the community wanting to make a difference. There is a cover at the door, the amount is up to you. Be generous though, all proceeds go to Haiti.

Oh yeah, people love prizes, so we've gathered gift cards, sparkley expensive things and vouchers for local eateries just for you.

Show up, enjoy the comedy, art and live music... Sprinkle in some shenanigans, good food, strong drink and we'll have a bash that will be remembered by us and the people we'll help for years to come.

      “ Hmm... Raising Haiti 2.0. Where should I start. I had a tremendously great time meeting new faces and connecting with old friends. VZD's definitely was packed throughout the night as several people, including myself, struggled to find a place to set. If I could change one thing about the night, it would be the silent auction. There were great items for bid with very little bidding going on. I understand this was for charity and, thats the point. The point is to make as much money as possible - many items were won at 80%-90% off actual price! The placement of the silent auction table was just inside the entry way and not much of a focal point after you actually entered. I havent heard the actual amount raised for "Raising Haiti" but, I am sure it was great and considered a success! Hope I didnt step on too many toes.. LOL ”
