Join Boston's most engaging, dynamic, and motivated professionals for an amazing evening, helping combat the most important environmental challenge of our time.
Earthwatch’s third annual Beat the Heat party launches our 2009 Climate Change Campaign in support of our critical research projects.
The venue for this evening features a stunning view of the Charles River and the summer skylines of Boston and Cambridge.
Your host for this evening is the fabulous Jonathan Soroff, charming social observer and columnist for
Improper Bostonian. An avid Earthwatch supporter, he will make sure you have a great time while helping a good cause:
- Excellent live entertainment
- Great food and drink (catered by Wolfgang Puck)
- Unique silent auction (including the chance to bid for a place on an Earthwatch expedition, artwork, sports memorabilia, and more*)
You will also have the opportunity to meet climate change expert and Earthwatch scientist Dr. Peter Kershaw who will inspire you with stories about his work with Earthwatch volunteers in the Arctic Circle.
Tickets
RSVP and purchase tickets* here. $100 in advance, $175 for a pair, or $125 each at the door.
