The catastrophic earthquake in Haiti showed no mercy on the tiny capital of Port-au-Prince and has affected us all with information and images about the devastation to life and property. Many nations have sent their first wave of emergency responders and people throughout the world are sending donations, goods and services. The Web Success Team is also taking action to aid in the relief efforts. As a participating sponsor, we are helping with online promotion and branding for “Taste of the Tropics,” a Super Bowl event geared to raising funds for the earthquake victims of Haiti.

Star Studded Fundraiser at Super Bowl Week

Entertainment & Sports Plus (ESP) along with Sports Entertainment Team (SET) have partnered with the American Red Cross and the Yéle Haiti Foundation to help the victims affected by the January 12^th earthquake. “Taste of The Tropics” is a Latin-inspired culinary tasting event hosted by actress and comedian Kym Whitley with all proceeds to benefit the earthquake victims. It will take place in Miami during Super Bowl Week. There will be special guest appearances by: Michael Boley (NFL player, NY Giants), DeShaun Foster (former Carolina Panthers and San Francisco 49ers player), Vivica Fox (Actress), and Willie Gault (former NFL Player). In addition to enjoying the cuisine, guests are asked to bring emergency and medical supplies to aid in the relief efforts.
