The Festival Benefits Two Important Causes
A portion of proceeds from the festival goes to benefit two important charities. The Take A Stand for HIV, Hepatitis-C & AIDS Crusade provides monetary assistance for education and research in Africa and the United States. The other beneficiary, Let's Seal The Crack, provides educational scholarships to area youths with GPAs that typically do not qualify them for most traditional educational assistance programs.
