Event Report: Escobar’s TR fundraiser on 3.27.11
As TR prepares for a fundraiser in San Diego, we want to thank CEO and founder of Archer Group Investments, partner at Escobar, and Team Rubicon volunteer, Jesse Levin, for delivering on a promise.
In Jesse’s words regarding the event:
To the Aspen merchant community, Triple Aught Design, and Rite in the Rain:
I would like to thank everyone on behalf of myself, the six other partners at Escobar, and at Team Rubicon for your outrageously generous contributions to the raffle for the Team Rubicon Fundraiser. On such short notice it was amazing to see how the community rallied to support this cause. I have been working in the non-for-profit disaster relief sector for over five years and I have never come across such an efficient and powerful response team as Team Rubicon. I appreciate the opportunity you afforded me to make a contribution. If there is ever anything we can do at Escobar for your establishment please let us know. Even though it was an impromptu event on a snowy Sunday at the end of the season your contributions helped us to raise $3,000 through the raffle for Team Rubicon.
Jesse Levin is a serial entrepreneur. He first introduced himself to Jake and I from Panama where he pilots his consulting firm Archer Group Investments. Jesse is a rare breed. He was moved by the destruction and human suffering of the Haiti earthquake and found himself there a few days afterward performing search and rescue. Later, he developed innovated logistics solutions for the organization Hope for Haiti.
Jesse attended our fundraiser in San Diego. Leaving the event he passed us a hand written note pledging to raise $3,000 for TR. We want to single Jesse out for a moment and thank him for delivering on his pledge. Actually please do so yourself, in Aspen, at Escobar.
William and Jake
