In honor of its 75th anniversary, Erie-LaSalle Body Shop is hosting a charity event, A Night in Support of Haiti, at the end of February.

The event is from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Feb. 26 at Martini Park in Chicago. Guests will receive complimentary appetizers and an open bar with a $40 advance admission fee ($50 at the door). One hundred percent of the admission fees will be donated to Partners in Health, a charity that has been working on the ground for more than 20 years.

"As soon as I heard of the tragedy in Haiti, I felt compelled to my lend support. I was already planning Erie-LaSalle's 75th anniversary party, so it seemed like a great opportunity to tie the two together," says Erie-LaSalle Body Shop's owner Bob Gottfred. "Partners in Health is a natural fit for me because they have been established in Haiti for two decades. As a longtime business owner myself, I know the importance of going to someone you can trust."

Attendees are encouraged to RSVP to the event early by visiting www.erielasalle.com/haiti.

Admission includes an open bar with beer, wine and cocktails including four specialty martinis like the Erie-LaSalle Body ShopTini and Strawberry Basil Martini. Passed appetizers are provided during the event. Guests have an opportunity to win raffle prizes, and Martini Park's signature live band plays throughout the night.

In addition to their efforts in Haiti, PIH works to bring modern medical care to poor communities in eight other countries around the world. The work of PIH has three goals: to care for patients, to alleviate the root causes of disease in communities and to share lessons learned around the world.
