Oscar Night America Party...
People Working Cooperatively Presents Humana’s Hometown Hollywood,
Cincinnati’s Only Official Oscar Night® America Party
CINCINNATI (January 22, 2009) – People Working Cooperatively (PWC) invites tri-state residents to enjoy the Hollywood glitz and glamour of this year’s Academy Awards at Cincinnati’s only official Oscar Night® America party Sunday, February 22, at the Cincinnati Hilton Netherland Plaza. Themed Hometown Hollywood, the 12th annual event is one of only 52 official parties sanctioned by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences held across the country on Oscar Night.
Supported in part by title sponsor, Humana, the gala runs from 5:30 p.m. to midnight and benefits PWC’s mission to provide critical home repair services to low-income, elderly, and disabled homeowners in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.
“Oscar Night has quickly become a renowned and cherished tradition in the city of Cincinnati,” said Jock Pitts, president of PWC. “Each year, the gala gives members of the community the opportunity to not only be a part of one of America’s most prominent affairs, but also one of Cincinnati’s greatest causes – to help residents facing difficult circumstances safely live in their own homes.”
The five-star Hollywood evening includes a red carpet welcome, screaming fans, celebrity look-a-likes and characters, live entertainment, martini bar, appetizers and a three-course gourmet meal. Throughout the evening, guests will have the opportunity to participate in live and silent auctions and a raffle giveaway that includes a $5,000 cash prize or a trip to a Warner Brothers movie premier in Hollywood or New York City.
In addition to watching the awards ceremony live via a giant screen, guests also receive the same official program distributed to guests at the Oscar® presentation at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood.
The night will be capped with a VIP After Party with a casino and dancing starting at 9 p.m. The party includes a chocolate bar, a caricature artist, photo booths, and champagne for the first $100 guests. Cost for the After Party for non-gala patrons is $20 at the door.
“Just as it is in Hollywood, Oscar Night Cincinnati will be a top-notch affair,” said Amy Finnegan, co-chair of PWC’s Oscar Night for the past 2 years. “From start to finish, our goal is to make guests feel like they are on the A-list. More importantly, we want people to walk away with a good understanding of how their participating contributed to an incredibly worthwhile mission.”
In 2008, PWC’s Oscar Night gala raised a record-breaking $105,000, placing it as one of the most successful Oscar Night events in the country. This year, PWC has set a fundraising goal of $110,000, which will directly benefit its Modifications for Mobility program.
Tickets for Oscar Night are $150 per person and are available for purchase at www.pwchomrepairs.org or by calling (513) 351-7921.

An email we received...
Fritsch:
My name is Audrea Boyle and I am writing to you to ask for your help. I am sure you receive dozens of emails asking the same but this may be a little different. Last Friday you may have heard on the news about a home in Price Hill that caught fire. That home was my mom’s neighbor. These people are mostly strangers to me aside from the neighborly hi and bye in passing, but I feel compelled to help them in any way that I can. Early Friday morning Marcus Guinn woke up to his house in a blaze. His 3 children were sleeping upstairs and he couldn’t get to them from the inside. Quickly he ran outside grabbed a ladder from his work truck and climbed onto the side roof, busted out the windows and with the assistance of his neighbor, Dennis Abner rescued his three children ages 3 almost 7 and 13 from their burning bedrooms. Mere seconds later flames were shooting from this same window. They are so grateful and lucky to be alive but now are left with the devastating reality of starting over from scratch! My mom, Ingrid Boyle has kindly stepped forward to help them in any way she can and I am committed to helping her do that.
What I am asking of you is this…I need someway to get the word out that this family needs help! I have set up an account called the Guinn Family Fund at 5/3 Bank. Anybody can donate any amount of money to any branch. They lost everything except the pajamas they were wearing. We are working really hard to get them the things they need but we need help. The middle boy lost his eyeglasses and Lens Crafters in Western Hills has gladly agreed to make him a new pair at no cost…my small office has donated as much as we can and my mom’s office has done the same, my aunt has gotten them coats. As you can see we are trying but it is no small task, I feel with your help and the help of the community we may be able to get the word out and really help this family.
Thanks for your time… and Merry Christmas to you all!
