BANDING TOGETHER AGAIN TO HELP NORTH BAY FIRE VICTIMS

As winter approaches, there is growing urgency to help get shelter, medical care and other important services to the tens of thousands of residents devastated by the North Bay fires. In partnership with the Tipping Point Emergency Relief Fund and companies like Salesforce and Kaiser Permanente, the Bay Area Council is urging its members to become a sponsor of Band Together 2, a benefit concert on Dec. 14 at San Francisco’s Bill Graham Civic Auditorium featuring the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Concert proceeds will support organizations like Santa Rosa Community Health, which provides primary health care and health education to underserved individuals and families regardless of their ability to pay. 24,000 of Santa Rosa Community Health’s patients, lacking any other source of care, have been medically displaced. In Santa Rosa and across the North Bay, the fires have stretched already limited resources thin, threatening long-term wellbeing. The Bay Area Council was proud to raise $3.3 million for the first Band Together concert on Nov. 9. Become a Band Together 2 sponsor today>>
