Description: Ask a local band to play in your
Residence Hall. Often times these bands will ask
for money, if so ask your Hall Council to defer the
fees, or any other Residence Hall Association on campus.
Advertise in your hall and some of the other local
halls. The key to make it a charity event is to
require anybody who attends the concert to bring either
a dollar or one item of canned food. Donate
the proceeds to a local charity.
Instructions_Things_Needed: Money for the band
(if necessary)
Sufficient amount of space for the band to set up.
A good advertising plan.
Other_Considerations: Make sure that the people
attending the concert and the band absolutely know it's
a charity event, not a for-profit concert.
