i.HUG

The International HUG Foundation was formed based on the realization that too many children in Uganda were needlessly slipping through the cracks. We can and are doing something to help them. This blog documents our becoming and the institution of ideas into practice.

Bushwacked!

In England, the teachers and kids at the Hardlow School were busy working to raise money and really make a big difference in Africa. Back in New York, the folks were pitching in to do their part as well.

"Bushwacked," the party put on by Spring Street Sessions on behalf of i.HUG, was held on July 4th on a rooftop in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Yours truly was tending to cocktails, while fellow Board Member and Last Year's Model front guitarist Mark Right, lugged up stage equipment six flights of stairs. It was a blast...and everybody pitched in to make it happen.

Janelle, performing with Mindspray, gets there early to help set up.

Roland gets hungry, and ends up becoming grill master for the night (until Brian took over!)

Oh no! There's still so much to set up!

And if the skies over NYC can just hold off on their rain...



But everything moves according to plan. And by the time I look up, Last Year's Model takes the stage and rocks the house!



That's me...i.HUG happy!
