A Great Show for a Great Cause

On April first The Caravan of Hope is hosting a fundraiser at Mitzi’s Sister 1554 Queen Street West (West of Lansdowne).

The event will be a great one as we have confirmed two great acts (with more to come).

KC ROBERTS AND THE LIVE REVOLUTION is an 8 piece funk orchestra with an animated horn section, two knockout female back up vocalists, and a rhythm section built to make you move.  Winner of the Independent Music Awards 2007 Best Live Act, the band blends funk and jazz with contemporary hip hop, house, jungle and rock.  They have shared the stage with The Black Eyed Peas, Talib Kweli, Rihanna, The Pocket Dwellers, Jim Cuddy, and others.  THIS BAND WILL MAKE YOU MOVE! http://kcroberts.ca/

About the cause:

The Caravan of Hope is purchasing 13 decommissioned ambulances and the City of Toronto will be donating one as well.  We are fortunate to be living in a  part of the world where our ambulances are sold off after a 54 month service period to ensure a high level of emergency vehicles.  So the Caravan is purchasing some of these vehicles and driving them to El Salvador.  As it stands, El Salvador has 4 ambulances serving the general public.  All 4 of those ambulance have been provided by Toronto, so let’s keep up this up and build a good reputation of helping Latin America.

THIS IS NOT CHARITY! It’s solidarity! We are building a medical infrastructure for an entire nation.  We are not simply giving poor people something to eat, we are helping them develop a system that will ensure that the people of El Salvador will be self sufficient in the future.  There are no ulterior motives here, we have no employees in this organization, and all your donations will go towards the purchase of the 13 ambulances.  All the musicians have volunteered their time so that the money collected at the door will go directly to the cause.

Thursday, April 1, 2010 (Remember that Friday is a holiday!!!)
$10 at the door  (additional donations welcome)
