OCEAN BEACH — Coastal Sage Gardening in Ocean Beach will host a community party and fundraiser on Sunday, Aug. 1 to assist the earthquake-stricken people of Haiti. Organizers said 20 percent of all sales and 100 percent of any donations will go to aid two groups: the HTC Foundation and Seeds for Haiti. The event will include crafts, talks, poetry, music and dance, and performances by local musician John Tafolla and friends, and demonstrations by Capoeira Brasil with Mindinho. The HTC Foundation is under the guidance of Dr. Carolle Jean-Murat, M.D., who is in Haiti today working with children. Seeds for Haiti, founded by Bazelais Jean-Baptiste, is providing seeds to farmers and creating a seed bank for sustainability.
