Last week Thursday, I Am Change.Org hosted a benefit concert for Haiti (with proceeds going through Hydrate Hope & the Real Hope for Haiti Rescue Center & Clinic) at Ecclesia + Taft St. Coffee.
[Note: About $7k was raised at this concert and in combination with the concert in The Woodlands the next day, the final tally was over $13k!]
The evening featured music by David Gamboa, Derek Webb, Finnegan, and The Wonderful Future.
Scott Erickson painted live during the event and the pieces were sold via silent auction with the proceeds going to the cause.
The paintings you see on the walls are from Scott’s ongoing show “The Saints of LOST“.
There was also some photography on sale to the benefit of the Haiti causes, by Debra Parker & Marc Brubaker.
Kudos to the organizers! Please continue to help where you can and keep Haiti in your prayers.
Postscript: My dear friends Ernest & Debra have been in the adoption process and have been trying to get their son home from Haiti for the past couple of years now. As of this morning Ernest is in Port-au-Prince trying to get through the last hurdles to bring their son home. We are praying that this will all happen very, very soon.
