    ALEXANDRIA, VA, October 09, 2011 /Nonprofit PR News/ -- S and B Event Management is hosting this reception in order to prevent an orphanage school in Afghanistan from closing. The event will take place at the Courtyard Marriot in Alexandria, Virginia on Thursday, October 27, 2011 from 6:00 pm till 9:00 pm. All proceeds go directly to the school.

The tickets for this wonderful cause are only $25.00 and include a full buffet of authentic Afghan foods. There will also be a cash bar and parking is free. This outstanding event includes a silent auction with hotels stays, and destination packages and a live raffle.

Come and shop at the bazaar for unique gifts from local artists. Mary Ellen Larkins is known for her fused glass jewelry and decorative items. She has been designing for over ten years. Marie's Collection sells items from India, Afghanistan, Turkey and Europe. The collection mainly includes sterling silver, Swarovski crystals, Kashmir shawls as well as some clothing. Other vendors include unique items brought back directly from Afghanistan.

Don't miss this opportunity to help the less fortunate in Afghanistan. This is the perfect event to donate money in order to help others as well as purchase unique gifts for someone special.

Since the Soviet invasion in 1979, the people of Afghanistan have endured lives filled with
deprivation, brutality and anguish. An entire generation has lost their childhood. Over 1.5 million have lost one or both parents, and over 700,000 orphans are living in sub-poverty conditions. International Orphan Care (IOC) provides education, healthcare, nutrition and vocational training so that these children will be healthy and productive members of their community.
