HOW
YOU CAN HELP
-- Get
Connected
We need free advertising, gifts donated for the silent auctions,
locations for concerts, event workers, music artists,
go-fers...actually, we need volunteers in general.
There are lots of really good music artists out there who may
want to donate their time, talents and possibly even a few of their cd's
for this cause. It doesn't have to be about having a great deal of money
- or even any money at all. You don't have to be a musician or singer to
be involved...as a matter of fact, if you aren't, then let's find out
what your real talents are and put those to use!
