LIFT Benefit Concert
LIFT Benefit Concert
Saturday, April 29, 2023
3 to 5 pm
This is a free event. We ask that attendees consider a donation. Register your attendance and donate at Eventbrite.
The concert helps us raise money to serve those in need of food in our downtown Oakland community! We partner with Alameda County Community Food Bank and others to source, store, and share food in the community. We spend an additional $6000 a year on food and food-related expenses. We make available hygiene products for our un-housed neighbors at a cost of $3,500 a year. We truly run on a shoestring budget with countless hours of volunteer service!
COVID-19 Concert Protocols:
Masks are suggested but not required.
