Alivio- NSB Concert for Puerto Rico
The New Studio on Broadway class of 2020 is putting on a benefit concert to raise funds for the relief efforts for Puerto Rico. The students of NSB are working directly with the Hispanic Federation for this event.
The Hispanic Federation was founded in 1990 with the mission to “empower and advance the hispanic community.” Through membership services, advocacy services, and community assistance programs, foundations, media, elected officials, government and private sector partners to help achieve their mission. In 2016 alone, Hispanic Federation has increased their national reach to over 16 states, helped over 150,000 families and individuals with direct social services, and awarded $2.6 million to 130 Latino nonprofits. Their philanthropic reach covers many areas, including awarding college scholarships, increasing health insurance enrollment, job training, and citizenship assistance. HF prides itself on its readiness to act and help those in need in response to natural disasters. Over the years, Latinx victims of natural disasters in Central America and the Caribbean have received millions of dollars from HF, and, with the help of their “family of Latino nonprofits” they have helped affected families in providing basic needs for those affected. We as a class have decided to partner with Hispanic Federation and their team of nonprofits in raising funds for disaster relief efforts for those affected by the recent hurricane in Puerto Rico.
Our performances take place on December 10th and 13th, with all proceeds going to to the Hispanic Federation. Join us for two nights of wonderful music for a great cause!
Best wishes,
The New Studio on Broadway class of 2020
