Benefiting AIDS Project Los Angeles
SBE and The Abbey Food & Bar present West Hollywood’s favorite Oscar viewing party, “The
Envelope Please,” a benefit for AIDS Project Los Angeles, happening on Sunday, March 7 start-
ing at 4:00 p.m. Originally started in 2001 by Abbey Founder & President David Cooley and Event
Producer Jeffrey Sanker, “The Envelope Please” is The Official Oscar Viewing Party for APLA, and
has become as famous as The Abbey itself as one of Hollywood’s most exciting awards night
events. The Abbey Food & Bar is located at 692 N. Robertson Ave in West Hollywood. Keeping
with the times, this year’s festivities will be open to the public and free of charge with big screen
monitors set up throughout the Abbey for fans to gather and watch the awards live, beginning
at 5:00 p.m. SBE will make a donation to APLA that evening, in celebration of the event. Abbey
Founder/President David Cooley says, “Dress to impress; this is the night for fashionable attire as
you work your way down The Abbey’s Red Carpet for a paparazzi-style photo opportunity.” Add-
ing, “On Hollywood’s biggest night, The Abbey will be decked out with a glamorous makeover
on the most prestigious night of the year, for a great cause.” From the time Red Carpet arriv-
als begin at 4:00 p.m. until end of the Oscar telecast, anyone making a $25 donation to APLA
receives any drink of their choice, compliments of The Abbey. As winners are announced, enjoy
