“Tip Drill...”

…for a good cause, I suppose. A strip club in Ohio has raised $1,000 for Haitian earthquake relief during what was billed as "Lap dances for Haiti." The club in Toledo donated the $10 cover charges collected Saturday to ISOH (I-S-O-H)/IMPACT, an organization based in suburban Perrysburg that provides food and clothing for Haiti.


Marilyn's general manager Kenny Soprano says his establishment had been looking for a reason to hold a charity fundraiser even before the quake, as a way to improve its image. He says you don't hear much about strip clubs giving back to the community.

ISOH/IMPACT CEO Linda Greene doesn't have a problem with where the money came from. She says her group appreciates any donations to help Haiti.

@ Linda Greene, spoken like a true business woman!

In all seriousness though, it was a kind hearted gesture. I’m just not sure donating $1,000 or any amount of money for that matter can clean up an image of a strip club.

  1. I won't clean up the image of a strip club, but it'll clean up some people's conscience. You make it rain at the club and get tig ol's in your face, and it's for a good cause?!?! That sounds like a great weekend to me. They can go back home to their wife and say they went to a fundraiser for Haiti, what she going to say?
