 Coolness: 149105 | DAWSON COLLEGE BENEFIT CONCERT AIMS TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE WHOLE COMMUNITY
The Stills and Fred Everything set to perform in support of Dawson College and Kids Help Phone In Concert Against Violence, a charity formed in the wake of the events of September 13th 2006 will hold a benefit concert for two causes: the first being the scholarship fund established in collaboration with the family of Anastasia DeSousa and Dawson College and the second; Kids Help Phone. The benefit will be held on Thursday, the 7th of December, 2006 at Club Metropolis, located at 59 Saint-Catherine street East. Tickets are priced for students at $15 and $20 for adults. They are on sale through Ticketpro and at Metropolis, E-Biz, and for students at Concordia and Dawson. The organisers are throwing the event with the view of have something positive emerge from these tragic events. “It is important to state that Montreal is a tolerant and peaceful community and such actions are aberrations and do not reflect a city that is fairly unaccustomed to gun violence,” stated Daniel Rafuse, attorney and Director of In Concert Against Violence. The Dawson Benefit Concert previously scheduled for November 25th was moved to coincide with the availability of certain artists. Net proceeds of the ticket sales will be divided equally between Kids Help Phone and the Anastasia DeSousa, Memorial Fund. “We have been approached by a number of individuals looking to do something after the tragedy, we feel a benefit concert is appropriate because it allows the student population an outlet to respectfully remember and to have fun at the show”, said Mary Di Liello staff member of Dawson College responsible for the Anastasia DeSousa, Memorial Fund . The fund was set up by the college to provide scholarships to students in financial need. “What is also positive is that the DeSousa family has offered their time to assist in selecting recipients of the scholarship that will bear the name of their daughter.” Bruno Mital, regional director of Kids Help Phone said, “I support this event; the volume of calls and volunteers that we required immediately after this incident increased dramatically.” “The response from the local music community has been overwhelming, we were extremely pleased to book artists such as The Stills, Fred Everything, and D-Shade from Shades of Culture. The artists have committed themselves to throwing an amazing show for the students, the aim is to use music as a means of collective catharsis and to raise funds for two great causes,” commented Me Rafuse. w/ THE STILLS FRED EVERYTHING DJ MANA D-SHADE RUGGED INTELLECT THE ALIENS HEAVY TRAFFIC SOULVATION DJ SARCASTIC ... much more @ METROPOLIS |
