We coordinated a 4-hour benefit event at Austin's Barton Creek Mall on June 1, 2008 as a fund raiser for American Red Cross of Central Texas for its international disaster relief fund for China. See the promotional poster below. Over $4,000 in cash was raised for the Red Cross; checks written directly to the Red Cross have not been counted at the time of this writing.

Thanks so much to the many volunteers and performers who made this event successful, and to Barton Creek Mall for providing the venue.

 

June 1 Sunday 2:00pm-6:00pm
Barton Creek Mall, first floor in front of JCPenney and Sears

Admission is free. Donated items will be available for sale. All donations go to American Red Cross of Central Texas for its international disaster relief fund for China.
