ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 10, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Diversified Global Holdings Group Inc. (OTCBB:DGHG), a rapidly growing international holding company, kicked off 2012 with a charity event at the renowned Enzian theater. Filmmakers, comedians, movie-lovers, and entrepreneurs all gathered to enjoy an evening of entertainment while supporting the Second Harvest Food Bank. Hailed an exceptional success in the fight against hunger, this event mixed comedy with cinema; nationally-acclaimed comedian Jersey the Hot Comic welcomed the audience with a stand-up routine, and a screening of film festival favorite No Charge immediately followed.
Written by Dan Luby and Director Carmen Treffiletti, No Charge features local actor/comedian Fernando Martinez as Antonio - a 30 year-old barista trudging through his unbearable daily routine while waiting for his big break as a musician. As opportunity presents itself, Antonio discovers that his most monumental day will also be his most trying. Martinez is appearing in the upcoming film Sunlight Jr., starring Naomi Watts, Matt Dillon, and Norman Reedus, as well as The Investigator. Martinez co-stars in No Charge alongside Karl Anthony and Amy LoCicero. Anthony's repertoire includes Lonely Hearts and The Hawk is Dying, where he acted alongside Paul Giamatti. LoCicero is most recently known for her role as Francine on the new MTV sitcom, The Inbetweeners.
"It has been such a pleasure working with the cast and crew of No Charge, Second Harvest [Food Bank] and Emerge Clothing. Thank you for making this such a successful event," said Richard Lloyd, executive producer and CEO of DGHG. "Today we raised enough money to feed 2,000 people."
