Raising Awareness
I would like to thank all who came on Jan. 29 and Feb. 5 and who donated to help the Haitian earthquake victims. We were able to raise nearly ¥170,000 (about US$1900) to give to Japan Red Cross.
I know that most of us are far removed from the events that occurred in Haiti, but it is my belief that those who have need to share with those who do not have. I am grateful so many Tokyoites made an effort to participate and help. Many thanks also to all the talent who joined us: Greg Irwin, Helen Morrison, Andrew Martinez, Jonathan Alan, Bodhi Kenyon, Joshua Brown, Rin & Kaneko, Stacy Powell, and others who donated time and talents. Also, thank you to Yoshiko-san, who allowed us to use Ben's Cafe as our "concert hall."
Thank you again, everyone!
