“Hand in Hand Benefit Concert - Typhoon Emergency" To Help With AID For The Philippines

Hollywood, CA --- October 14, 2009 A&G Records in association with Philippine Aid Society announced Multi-talented recording artists Lotonius Earl, Jezda, Kris Searle, Jael Gadsden, Fawn, Asha Puthli, Stuart Guest, Rob C and Arnold G to perform live at "Hand in Hand Benefit Concert - Typhoon Emergency."

"To be honest, I can't take credit for the idea. This was Arnold G's initiative. When he approached me about doing the concert, I was all for it because I could tell he had a heart to help the Philippines" Said Tim Troutman, Executive Director of the Philippine Aid Society.
The event will be held on Monday, October 19, 2009 from 9pm to 11pm at Rage Restaurant & Bar 8911 Santa Monica Blvd West Hollywood, CA 90069. Telephone: (310) 652-7055.
He continue "I hope it will raise awareness for the Philippines and the serious need they have there. I also hope to raise some money because every dollar raised translates directly into emergency items for the victims."
Event will be hosted by Rana Davis, popular long time hostess and emcee in Southern California.
This is a benefit concert to help raise awareness and needed funds to help the victims of the devastating floods the occurred on September 26, 2009. The Manila metro area was pummeled by Typhoon Ketsana (Ondoy) which resulted in the worst flooding the Philippines has seen in over 40 years. Some are calling the storm the "Katrina of the Philippines." Nearly 699 people have lost their lives and countless thousands have lost everything they own. To be sure, millions of Filipinos, living in one of the poorest countries in the world, were deeply affected by this tragedy in the Phillipines. All proceeds will go to the Philippine Aid Society a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

The goal is to raise $100,000. That will go a long way to restoring family housing, getting medicine, food and clothing to those in direct need in the Philippines.

"Tens of Thousands of people in Manila and surrounding areas have lost everything they own. We can't give it all back to them, but this money raised will go to help them survive and recover from this tragedy." Concluded Troutman.
Also donations of clothing and can foods will be accepted on location, as well at: Manila Forwarder: 4323 Eagle Rock Blvd, Unit 313, Los Angeles, CA 90041 Telephone: (323) 478-1599.
