"The trouble with supporting charities is feeling so far away from whomever or whatever it is you are helping. When it's a huge corporation, you're wondering where exactly your charitable donation is going, and when it's a small organization, your afraid the group hasn't got the clout to get the job done...These qualms refreshingly had no place last night in downtown Manhattan as The Setai Club New York & SHO Shaun Hergatt Restaurant partnered with the little juggernaut called Care Through Action."

+ Photojournalist: Alissa Everett Raises Awareness & Funds For The Women of the Democratic Republic of the Congo -- 10.2.2009 c/o Progressive Pulse Blog
