The HLO (Hills Lunch Organization) is organizing a very fun Beers for Books event at one of Roppongi Hills' most popular drinking spots--Heartland. Founded by a group of Roppongi Hills office workers, HLO brings people from many different companies in the building to enjoy lunch, make new friends, and just have a good time.

This time, they're organizing a night-time event and everybody is welcome to join in the B4B fun. As part of "Beers for Books: A Week of Thanks" we'll be aiming to break the 100,000 book milestone on the night, so plan to join us and participate enthusiastically in the raffle for some great prizes while enjoying some tasty drinks at the bar.

For those of you new to Beers for Books, the concept is simple: For every drink you have, 100 yen will be donated to Room to Read and that buys a treasured book for children via Room to Read.

Room to Read is an amazing NPO whose mission is to provide quality educational opportunities to children in developing countries with the goal of empowering kids via literacy. Room to Read has projects in 9 countries in Asia and Africa including Nepal, Cambodia, Zambia, etc. For more details see www.roomtoread.org or in Japanese www.roomtoread.jp.

Please join us for a Wednesday night of fun and frolic at Heartland from the opening at 5PM until 11PM (Of course, you can stay at Heartland until 4AM) and feel free to bring friends. Hope to see you there!
