About:
we are happy to present a solidarity event in favor of people in our community, whose houses and lands have been damaged or destroyed by the recent storms and floodings and who neither have the necessary funds nor are eligible to receive financial support by the government.

Line-up:
Sophie (guitar, voice), Sarah (piano), Rogério Costa (guitar, voice), Maria Joy (violin, guitar, voice) & Gary (cajon, handpan, harmonica)

We provide culinary accompaniment with a vegetarian/vegan buffet and a (non-alcoholic) bar (on donation basis).

During the charity concert we will hold a tombola/raffle with a variety of lovely prizes kindly donated by local supporters. Tickets can be purchased on site, and every ticket helps support the families affected by the storms.

Come and bring your friends and family!
