As you all know, we are rapidly approaching a sad anniversary here.
Hard to believe it's been almost a year since we lost Buppalo..
We were trying to find a way to honor him and do something for the community and we think we have a pretty cool deal going..
this saturday, aug 24th, we are holding a fundraiser here in Gadsden,Al to raise money for needy children to get musical lessons here in Randy's name.
The great part is, you can donate online DIRECTLY to the cultural arts center in Randy's name..
you will know EXACTLY where your money is going..
This is the first of what will be an annual event to honor the memory of Randy Stephens, a long time supporter of local, regional and national music in Gadsden, Al.
Randy was responsible for changing lives and bringing joy to countless people both in and around Gadsden and the world and we are asking that you help us honor him by giving the gift of music lessons to needy students in Gadsden.
The live event will feature music by POE, Superskunk, The Jess Goggans Band and the The Lefty Collins Band and we will be accepting donations at the event in the form of cash or checks, all of which will be turned over to the Cultural Arts Center on the spot.
You can also make donations online DIRECTLY to the scholarship fund by doing the following;
1) Click on this link; http://tinyurl.com/randyjam
2)Under donations, you will find a special tab for the Randy Jam.
3) just put in the amount you would like to contribute and give your Credit card information and you are done !!
We really want to show this community, Randy's family and his many friends just what kind of an impact he had on so many of us with his love of music and his love of Gadsden.
These scholarships will benefit students who can not afford the lessons and I can assure you that they DO go to those in need.
What a way to honor Randy !!!
please help and please spread the word and share this with AS MANY FOLKS AS YOU CAN !
