Aid Patrick's Journey After the Accident

What is up? My name is Soraksmey Soeur and I'm trying to raise money for my buddy and longtime great friend Patrick D'Andrea. I met Pat about 15-17 years ago in Portsmouth, New Hampshire while both of us were trying to bust our chops to get ahead in this competitive restaurant scene. In this industry, it really is hard to keep and maintain friendships and even just to keep in contact with someone you've once worked with. But Pat has been one of those people that I've always been able to keep in contact with. That has to mean something.

Pat started working in this town flipping burgers at Ri Ra and actually set the record for the most amount of burgers sold in one night. Pat then sharpened his teeth all across town, holding titles at many of the restaurants in our neck of the woods, places such as sous chef at Cure, Library Restaurant, Jumpin' Jay's, to name a few. But as the world works, my friend got into a terrible accident that left him hospitalized for a little over a month. During this time, Pat was asked to leave his apartment by his landlord because, well, Portsmouth will be Portsmouth. Patrick is now in between homes and needs our help.

We'll be holding a benefit for him at BRGR Bar on the 13th of January at 10 PM. The address is 34 Portwalk Place, Portsmouth, NH, 03801. We're trying to raise 15K. There'll be a raffle and a bartending competition going as well. Come support a friend that has done nothing but support me. Thank you.
