The Academy Awards are almost upon us, and that means one of the most anticipated awards season traditions has once again returned to Los Angeles. Today and tomorrow, the ALIVE! Expo Green Pavilion/Mix Media Luxury Lounge with Fortunate Angels -- benefiting Project Green 501c3 -- kicks off their annual pre-Oscars suite. As the original green suite, ALIVE! Expo Green Pavilion introduces, educates, and entertains celebrities, media members and other VIP guests with the latest and greatest in the natural product industry, all to benefit Project Green 501c3. Kim Kreiss and Patrycja Siewert-Towns, Founders of Project Green and owners of AEGP/Mix Media Luxury Lounge, take going green to the next level; with hundreds of returning guests at each event, Kreiss and Siewert-Towns have perfected the ultimate lounge when it comes to raising awareness in the green community in conjunction with their charity. And, of course, guests are always showered with supremely Super Swag!

Several LA gift suites choose wonderful charities to help, but Kim and Patrycja founded ALIVE! Green Expo Green Pavilion/Mix Media Luxury Lounge (the ORIGINAL green gifting suite) -- and Project Green a few years later -- in order to build a brand and raise money for an unending cause.  When they’re not catering to the likes of Hollywood, their mission is in play around the country whether it’s a health and wellness expo or local event in their hometown of Atlanta. Going green, giving back, going green, giving back, it’s a fabulous cycle; gifting green is simply a bonus several times a year.
