Irvine, CA - A donation day promotion to collect funds for hurricane victims will take place on Friday, Sept. 9th from 2 p.m. until 8 p.m. at FOX Sports Grill in the Irvine Spectrum Center.

Officials from the Red Cross will be on site to collect donations from Orange County residents. Pacific Premiere bank has volunteered to assist with the collection of funds through their branches and will also supply volunteers at the event.

Event promoter, OwL Enterprises will utilize all of their promotion and marketing assets to distribute thousands of emails, flyers and posters over the week to individuals and businesses throughout Orange County to garner support for the event.

People want to help but they need to feel a sense of community and connection when donating to a cause. Donation Day is a way for people to share in a community effort to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina and provide the Red Cross with access to thousands of people who want to donate but haven't found the time to do so."

Orange County Residents and Businesses interested in coming out to the event as a show support can make a cash donation to the Red Cross for victims Hurricane Katrina.

Donation Day's sponsor is local Budweiser wholesaler, Straub Distributing.
