Through an in-house tournament held this Saturday, Alliance US Headquarters, in Atlanta, Georgia, managed to raise 2,500 dollars for victims of the earthquake in Haiti.
“We’re sending the money now,” Master Romero “Jacare” Cavalcanti told GRACIEMAG.com. “It was a really cool gi tournament, perfectly organized with everything running on schedule. At the end of the day, with 160 competitors signed up and a leather jacket raffled off, we collected 2,500 dollars. It was a great party.”
The donation will be sent to the Red Cross, which is working on rebuilding the Caribbean nation.
