It's time to start planning for a Benefit Concert before the holidays - we could even make it into a Holiday Benefit Concert.
- Anybody anywhere (yes, this means people outside of Campbell!) can perform anything relating to the arts (including music, rap/spoken word/poetry, dance, skits, etc.).
- Funds will be donated to a certain cause.
- Date is TBA. I'm meeting with Mrs. Magee next week, and will have a date then. I'm hoping a Friday in early December.
Post a comment here by next week with a cause you think we should donate to. Give a link or a mini description, and we'll have the club vote on one at the meeting.
I think our cause should be helping education in the Horn of Africa since there is the drought/famine there. Here's an article from UNICEF with information about their efforts so far. http://www.unicef.org/media/media_59753.html
ReplyDeleteI think we should donate to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. They provide a "home away from home" for families who have children who are going through medical treatment. Since medical bills are so expensive they like to provide a place for families to be able so stay together at little to no cost.

I think we should donate to charity:water. charity: water is a non-profit organization bringing clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations. 100% of public donations directly fund water projects. Their website explains in more detail why water is so important to developing nations.
