Band Together News
Check out more event PHOTOS, compliments of Rich and Andy CoxThunderstorms won’t get in the way of great music and Triangle area altruism! Band Together will donate $358,000 to StepUP Ministry this year from its concert event! The funds raised will help StepUP hire additional staff and extend their services to even more low income and homeless people in need of learning life skills and job skills so that they may become productive, tax paying citizens.With the 2010 tally, Band Together reaches over $1,000,000 in total donations to local charities!! It is simply amazing what a group of music loving volunteers who care about the community can do.On May 22, The Old Ceremony, Anoop Desai, One EskimO, Michael Franti & Spearhead, Holy Ghost Tent Revival played in front of a loyal crowd of 2500. Rain, did not dampen the spirits of music enthusiasts and community volunteers, who understood that this show was about much more than just the music. The headliner, Michael Franti, was extremely complimentary of Band Together and StepUP and took time to visit with volunteers from each program before the show.Band Together event co-chair, Trey Caudle, said, “In spite of two rain showers, we hosted our most successful event to date. We had an amazing team of volunteers, we raised a staggering amount of money from sponsors, ticket sales, silent auction, guitar raffles, and a live painting. Raleigh will be feeling the positive effects from this event for years to come.”Please stay tuned for more information about 2011 charity selection and what’s in store for our next music line up.
