Music is a universal language; it crosses all borders and age groups and I suppose in its purist form upholds the values of the American Red Cross. The recent Rock ‘N Runway fundraiser in California and the grand prize for the national Change a Life Contest in March – a two-night trip for two to Washington D.C. to join Keith Urban and his band on August 20th as they play their Escape Together World Tour concert – marry charity and music together .
Music Fundraisers aren’t always large concerts for a major cause sometimes artists give away tickets and backstage passes for the everyday heroes that help make the world a little bit better everyday . The ARC has massive appeal and I don’t think anyone would turn them down if they approached them – what’s not to like?
Music is not the only way you can help . You could donate a car, clothes, furniture, garden equipment, sorting through an estate inheritance there may be all manner of things that would make a good sum of money to help raise funds. There might be a property that could be a bequest; real estate can be used in many different ways , it could be sold or used as alternative accommodation or maybe as offices for training or administration or even for the warehousing of supplies and equipment that has to be stored somewhere. An old vehicle donation would save you the trouble of finding a buyer yourself or just organizing getting it off your hands. Bric-a-brac you have no use for could be a donation that might just get those extra cents into the coffers. Vinyl records or vintage (okay…old) vehicles could make money so don’t disregard them, donate them, a car donation gets sold off in auction and who knows who might purchase the records; some older LPs are used by deejays to take samples from in their own recordings.
Car donation, cash donation, goods and services donation, concert tickets donation are all music to our ears, so donate your car, text ‘GIVE’ to ‘2HELP’or donate your time to fundraising activities.
