To kickstart the fundraising for this trip, Threepenny Cafe at 420 West Main St. in Charlottesville (formerly home to Zinc) has generously agreed to host a fun and festive fundraising event for the Charlottesville-Winneba Foundation on Tuesday, June 24. It's called "Nurses Night" and any nurse who works at UVa (or Martha Jefferson, or anywhere else in the community) will receive a big discount on drinks from the Threepenny bar from 7-10pm that night - just bring your nurse's badge or I.D. Of course, non-nurses are totally welcome and encouraged to attend as well; a portion of all the proceeds that evening will go to the Charlottesville-Winneba Foundation (www.cville-winneba.blogspot.com) to help offset the costs of the upcoming trip to Winneba.For more info. on the event, here's the Nurses Night page on Facebook:
