Hello from Ajay Krishnamurthy and Tanvi Krishnamurthy. We are both Seniors in high school. Like many of us, we have been deeply affected by what happened over the course of this year, especially this summer. So we wanted to do something to support racial justice around the world. We are learning classical Indian Arts, and we decided to organize this concert as a fundraiser for social justice causes. This GoFundMe site will forward all donations to the Equal Justice Initiative started by Bryan Stevenson. Please support the cause in any way that you can.
