Benefit Concert for the Middle East Children's Alliance

On Wednesday, June 3rd, my good friend Ali and I are hosting a benefit concert to raise money for the Middle East Children's Alliance. MECA has been active since 1988 helping children survive amidst war all over the Middle East. Now they are providing food, water, childcare, and sanitation services in Gaza.
