Drag Queen Bingo, anyone? True Blood’s Kristin Bauer (Pam on True Blood) is hosting the bingo event to raise $$ for the documentary, “Out For Africa,” she’s making about the slaughter of elephants for their ivory. The event takes place on November 7.
Kristin explains why she is doing this film on her web site:
“Elephants and Rhinoceros are in crisis. Rhino in the wild have now gone extinct. Poaching for Elephant ivory and Rhino horn is at an all-time high. In 2011, more elephant tusks were seized than in any year since 1989 when the ivory trade was banned. Accelerated poaching made 2011 the worst year for the Rhino and 2012 has been even worse. The Western Black Rhino has now gone extinct entirely as well as the Northern White Rhino. If we don’t do more it is likely the last of the rhino and Elephants in the wild will also be extinct in less than fifteen years, at this rate.”
So come on out and have a fun time and also help this worthy cause. $20 will get you in (cash only at door; but they will take checks/credit for auction). The event is being held next Wednesday night, November 7 at Hamburger Mary’s in West Hollywood at 8288 Santa Monica Blvd. Just by attending you will become a part of this amazing venture that Kristin is working so hard for and also have a good time.
