	"Tearin' Down the Walls" Concert to Benefit the Homeless
December 15th
	
	The community is invited to participate in this benefit and
encouraged to 
	break the isolation and cycle of poverty by Tearin' Down the
Walls. We
	believe it is time to eliminate the stigma and demystify the
images
	associated with people who are homeless. Those in our
communities who are 
	homeless are no different than anyone else. They are members of
our
	community; our friends, neighbors, and coworkers. There has been
an effort
	to invite current shelter residents to attend this concert. The
goal of 
	Tearin' Down The Walls is to raise money for Churches United for
the
	Homeless and the YWCA Shelter.
	
	This benefit is being sponsored by PEPP, a tax Exempt, 501-c-3
nonprofit
	organization working in Fargo-Moorhead for the past 21 years.
PEPP has 
	joined forces with local musicians in order to bring  attention
to the
	issue of Homelessness in the Fargo -Moorhead Community.
	
	These musicians will be donating their time and talents in order
to help
	raise awareness about the issue of homelessness in our
Communities. All 
	the musicians involved in this benefit have social commentaries
woven
	throughout their lyrics and music. Several of the participating
musicians
	have been homeless themselves.
	
	Three musical groups will be showcased during the benefit
concert. The 
	Cedars will perform acoustic Folk Rock from 7:00 to 8:00 PM.
Raven
	Darkcloud will perform Organic Blues Folk Rock from 8:00 to 8:30
PM. Big
	Bubba Brown will perform the finale with New Orleans Blues and
folk.
	
	A free will offering will be requested of those attending the
concert;
	however, no one will be turned away if they are unable to make a
monetary
	contribution. All proceeds will be donated to Churches United
for the 
	Homeless and the YWCA shelters, and divided equally between the
two.
	
	A list of items most needed by both shelters will be distributed
so people
	can make appropriate donations to both shelters.
	
	As a sponsor of this event, PEPP will receive all tax
deductible 
	donations for this benefit. The entire proceeds of the benefit
will be
	distributed equally between the
	two shelters.
	
	If anyone is unable to attend the concert but desires to support
this
	effort, you are encouraged to do so by sending your donation to
PEPP at 
	116 12th St. S., Moorhead, MN 56560.  All financial Donations
are Tax
	Deductible.
