“I am excited because
the next time I am in Cat Island I will be there personally delivering
packages of items we’ve collect from the concert,” said Chatti.
“We will have a large donation drop off tent at the concert site to
collect clothes, food, cleaning items and even appliances as long as
they are in working order. Some people lost absolutely everything so
anything that you aren’t using, please bring so that we can send it
to the hurricane victims.”
Chatti also revealed
how funds will be allocated from monies received at the concert.
“60% of the monies
collected from food will go directly to relief fund thanks to Phil’s
Food Services who donated all of the food,” she explained.” 40%
of the bar will go to the relief fund and all vendors are contributing
20% of their profits to the relief funds. Additionally, 50% of the gate
will go to relief fund. All of that money will go directly to the people
of Cat Island.”
Chatti also indicated
plans to go beyond helping hurricane victims with concerts in other
parts of the region to help islanders preserve heritage sites and more.
“
Make
Em Listen” will be live streaming this concert to New York and at
the end of the year, will facilitate several viewing concert events
throughout the United States to further promote and continue the
drive for
donations, the organizers have said. This is a long road and far exceeds,
a “one time” event, according to Chatti.
“We have to lend
a hand to those in need,” she said. “If we all do a little it goes
a lot further.”
The event is being
made possible through the generous donations of “Make em Listen”,
