Benefit Concert

When: February 18th, 2013
Where: Backspace. Portland, OR


With the gracious venue at Backspace and the top-notch bands that played for us, we were able to raise $700. The entrance fee was $5 and shirts could be purchased for $10. The bands in attendance were The Ecstatics, Bipolar Bear, and Reign the Arcade. All proceeds went to the anti-trafficking department of the Portland non-profit law firm, Immigration Counseling Services.

If you are interested in partnering with us for a benefit event either as an anti-trafficking organization or a charitable band or event space venue, let us know.
