Help Steve Lewis get back to “Life” (pun intended)

Beschermde donatie
Steve Lewis, the king of clubs, is a man whose existence has touched so many of us. We have all danced at his nightclubs, been blown away with his incredulous stories and marveled at his larger-than-life persona.  Because of him, his big heart, and his magical ability to create incredible spaces - we’ve all been blessed with unforgettable memories of nights on the dance floor as well as forged lifelong friendships, marriages, businesses, and even children.

As many of you know, “Uncle” Steve is recovering from two life threatening brain surgeries (brain tumor removal and brain artery bypass)as well as a hip replacement. Steve is finally home and in good spirits but there is still a long road ahead. Any funds raised would allow Steve to get the in-home care/physical therapy he needs to facilitate his recovery and also allow his wife and sole caregiver Michelle to get back to work.

This is our chance to give back to The Godfather of NY Nightlife who has given so much to so many of us.

We completely understand the financial hardships many people are going through now. If you are not sure how much to donate, we’ve asked a group of current and former independent nightclub promoters to give us some perspective on Steve’s contributions over the course of his illustrious career.

Our team of promoter “experts” (admittedly bad at math) estimate that between comps and drink tickets, Steve gave away over $12 million in freebies over 35 years!

Steve single handedly hired thousands of individuals from bar tenders, promoters, bus boys, door people, mascots, gogo dancers, drag queens, DJs, liquor distributors, printers, contractors, not to mention his never ending roster of assistants, contributing greatly to NYC nightlife’s economic vitality as well as his staff’s livelihoods, career growth and opportunities.

Steve created clubs, restaurants, bars that were inclusive environments where people of ALL walks of life could come together to dance, enjoy life and be free. All you had to be was “cool”. Those moments of complete abandon where your true self shown bright - priceless.

So please think about the unbelievable generosity Steven Lewis (despite his sometimes curmudgeon persona) has shown, and maybe you could donate and share this page so we can get Steve back on his feet and he and his lovely wife can get the respite and care they so desperately need and deserve.

Thank you from the bottom of our booze riddled hearts ...
