WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 05, 2008  
 
Hurricane Ike has had a significant impact on the arts community along the Gulf Coast resulting in structural damage to many venues as well as severe monetary loss due to canceled performances and rescheduling. We understand how difficult it is to maintain the ability to generate capital in the best of times, much less in the face of a disaster. To ease some of this pressure and to help in the rebuilding process, StubDog.com is proud to announce its partnership with the Houston Arts Alliance in an effort to raise funds for the Houston Arts Community.

From November 12 – December 12, 2008, StubDog will donate half of its profits to the Hurricane Ike Arts Relief Fund. $2 from every ticket sold, half of our profits, will be donated directly to the Fund. StubDog is committed to supporting the communities in which we do business and excited to have the opportunity to support the Arts. We look forward to a successful month and hope you help us to spread the word about this great event.
