March 19, 2011, 13 years ago
Rise Above Foundation is collaborating with the New England Metal and Hardcore Festival (NEMHF) in Worcester next month in their efforts to provide Massachusetts children in foster care with enriching activities, opportunities, and experiences.
The Central Mass.-based nonprofit Rise Above has partnered with NEMHF to offer opportunities to share with festival goers more about the organization and to build community support. Rise Above’s presence on festival promotions and at the festival itself, slated for April 14-16 at the Palladium, will also be a chance for Rise Above to raise awareness and funds through exclusive merchandise available at the event.
“There are almost 10,000 kids in foster care here in Massachusetts. We want to inspire them to look beyond their current situation and allow them to put their worries aside and enjoy life as a kid,” says Rise Above co-founder Wade Sulzman. “Our partnership with NEMHF is valuable way for us to get the word out about what Rise Above is all about.”In addition, NEMHF has generously donated tickets to the festival for area foster children. For more information about tickets for foster children to NEMHC, please visit Rise Above’s website at this location.
