The Foundation for International Understanding through Students (FUITS), music educator Kent Stevenson, music director Fred West, and the University Christian Church organized a Haiti benefit concert that included more than 100 performers. In addition to the performers, about 175 community members attended the concert at University Christian Church, raising more than $5,000.
Proceeds from the concert will go to Doctors Without Borders, Fonkoze: Haitian Grassroots Alternative Bank for the Organized Poor, and NOMA: Northwest Organization of Minority Architects. ♦
