See It: The Community being helped
I started a nonprofit organization to raise money for the American Cancer Society. This summer we are hosting a large benefit concert in Minneapolis, MN, hoping to raise around $500,000.

Project Updates:
After winning the GameStop Youth Grant, we pushed for weeks to make this event happen. The money, which was very helpful in putting this together, was used for advertising our event and paying for transportation for some performers. Unfortunately, things fell apart at the last minute when we lost the arena (due to money) and our headlining act canceled.
We will resume our efforts to make the world a better place next month with Jammin' for Judes. We are hosting a day of bowling featuring a special guest next August. We are really hoping to make this one successful!
