Hope For Haiti Concert
On January 12th, disaster struck the poorest nation in the western hemisphere, when a 7.0 level earthquake razed the Haitian capital of Port-Au-Prince. As the death toll skyrockets and with access to basic necessities still scarce, Haiti is in dire need of funds for both the immediate relief, as well as towards rebuilding.
This February 3rd, at 7:30 pm we’re inviting you to come over to Yugong Yishan to enjoy a very special night of music and dancing, with all the ticket proceeds going directly to those in need!
We’ve assembled a great line-up of bands and DJs playing a powerful blend of Afro & Caribbean rhythms; Reggae, Funk, Soul, Afrobeat and Drum & Bass. 100% of your 50 RMB entrance ticket, as well as 10% of all bar takings, goes to Partners In Health (http://www.standwithhaiti.org), a grassroots organization that has been working on the ground in Haiti for over 20 years. Our goal is to raise 50,000 RMB through tickets and donations, so come and get down to help others get up!

一切为了海地 大型音乐会
在刚刚过去的1月12日，一场天灾席卷了西半球最贫穷的国家。里氏7.0级的强地震袭击了海地首府太子港，造成了重大的人员伤亡和城市损毁。随着罹难人数的急剧攀升，同时也由于基本生活必需品的高度匮乏，海地急需一笔资金帮助他们及时救灾、着手重建。

此次活动汇集了大批出众的乐队和DJ, 届时将精彩演绎非洲及加勒比海曲调、雷鬼乐、放克音乐、灵歌、非洲民族音乐，以及鼓和贝司。人均50元的门票收入以及10%的吧台使用费收入，将全部捐献给一个20年来致力于海地救助工作的平民慈善机构Partners In Health (http://www.standwithhaiti.org)。我们的目标是：通过门票收入和现场捐献，募集到5万元人民币。所以，请加入我们，一起来帮助受灾的民众走出困境、重建家园！
