WVKR Dj’s Organize Haitian Relief Benefit

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

In the midst of all these tweets about donating to Haiti relief funds via text message, it’s kind of nice to see more traditional community-based activism emerging as an alternative. On Saturday, February 6, WVKR Dj’s Super T, Christine Williams, Vincent Smith, Rupie T, and Plummie are teaming up with WCZX to put on a Haitian Disaster Relief Fundraiser. The Ciboney Cafe (located at 189 Church Street in Poughkeepsie) has donated the use of its venue for the evening, and doors open at 7:30. There will be a cover charge at the door. 100% of all money collected will go to Haiti through the Presbyterian church. Any questions about the event should be directed to Christine Williams at Koolmeditations@hotmail.com
