Proceeds from the event benefited <a href="http://africanyouthoutreach.org/">African Youth Outreach</a>, a phenomenal organization that raises funds to support medical care for AIDS orphans in Africa.<br /><br />The event was an incredible success, drawing near record numbers for TPS. In late January, TPS drew up a check for $600 that will benefit AYO. The highlight of the event for many was the drag show, including performances from many groups who had participated in the World AIDS Day cause. Here are a few piccies from the evening, courtesy of Charlie Gorichanaz:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/43/3724/1600/643451/n8642545_34514779_4333.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;
