To: ethan at ethancasey.com


Dear Northwest friends,

Last month Greg Mortenson gave Todd Shea, who has been providing
direct relief to victims of the horrific flooding in Pakistan since
the summer, his Humanitarian of the Year award. I hope you can make it
on Monday and that you'll tell others.

Thanks, Ethan

TODD SHEA: A REPORT FROM FLOOD-RAVAGED PAKISTAN
Monday, November 1, 2010, 7:30 – 9pm
Downstairs at Town Hall; enter on Seneca Street.

Months after the Pakistani floods, devastation and disease continue to
threaten millions of people. And that’s just part of Todd Shea’s
message—the SHINE/CDRS founder, considered “the world’s go-to guy for
disaster relief,” says the American public have been hearing “2% of
the story, 98% of the time” about Pakistan for years. With the unique
perspective of an immediate ground-level responder, Shea says: “I want
the American people to know the truth—I believe that if they had all
the information, they would know what to do with it.” Presented by the
Town Hall Center for Civic Life. Series media sponsorship provided by
PubliCola. Series supported by The Boeing Company Charitable Trust and
the RealNetworks Foundation.
