Hey Everyone! 
Besides my life as a Purple Carrot,  I am also one of the organizers of YES!+ FEST'09, a benefit concert that will bring together hundreds of students and young professionals to take a stand for non-violence. The concert will feature live music from Montreal's own Papagroove, Mathieu Lippe, and Elie Haroun,and an enchanting dance performance by Sudeshna Maulik. It will be anincredible opportunity for young people in the Montreal community tocome together and take action towards positive change in theirindividual lives, as well as in the global family.

YES!+FEST'09 is presented by the Art Of Living Foundation, an international NGO active in over 140 countries worldwide. It will bring together students and young professionals to take action towards creating a violence-free society. YES!+FEST'09 is also a celebration of an extraordinary movement called YES!+ that has improved the lives of thousands of young people worldwide.

Ok, put your cappuccino down for a sec.  It's probably your third one today, right?  Riiiiiiiight!

Here's a better idea for a nice energy boost:  a trip to a winter wonderland, literally 1.5 hours from Montreal.  Check out the poster below and/or hit me up for more details.

Good Times!

Haiti has been shocked by the severity of yesterday's earthquake.  Needless to say, resources are needed to restore the country to a sustainable condition.

The International Association for Human Values is an international humanitarian and educational NGO dedicated to enhancing the quality of life through its various development projects.  

We can do our part in easing the suffering of the Haitian people by making a donation here.

Let's not let this be another Katrina...Let's join hands and help.
