STUFF ABOUT ME:
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME:
This June 9th, The Black Eyed Peas and some special friends are throwing a little picnic on the Great Lawn of Central Park to benefit Robin Hood, the largest and most innovative independent poverty-fighter in NYC. It’s called the Concert 4 NYC.
60,000 people will gather to help the 1.8 million New Yorkers living in poverty. We’re going to raise funds, raise awareness and raise the roof at the same time.
Donate $25 for a chance to win 2 VIP tickets and access to an exclusive VIP party in Central Park!
Did you know that in 2010, Robin Hood touched the lives of over 650,000 New Yorkers? Last year we provided over 5 million meals to hungry New Yorkers, helped educate 45,000 students, and helped heal over 35,000 low-income patients. Join us on June 9 and help us do even more in 2011!
