Freehold, New Jersey (Monmouth County)

Fundraiser - benefit concert at iPlay America

for more information please contact Jamie Weiskopf (jweiskopf@centrastate.com)

All ticket sales ($20 each) will be going to benefit the United Way of Monmouth County's Hurricane Sandy Rebuild Monmouth Fund. I think it's really important that we help to direct donations to local groups doing local work, and Monmouth County really could use it. Our FB link is: https://www.facebook.com/events/174610852677180/ Please share with your friends or anyone else you think might be interested. Thanks!!
