Description

3rd Annual Fall Concert and Winter Coat Drive We invite you to join us for our 3rd Annual Fall Concert & Homeless Benefit. Admission: Items for the Unhoused The growing homeless population in California is deeply concerning and Sacramento’s homeless community is large and increasing daily at an alarming rate. With the cost of living increasing, we realize that many of us are 1-2 paychecks away from being homeless ourselves. The stress of not having enough coupled with the Covid-19 pandemic has negatively impacted many people within our community. While we do not have the resources to house the homeless in our respective areas, we would like to come together and do something to help this population of people during the cold and brutal winter months. This year, we are fortunate to be able to bring Benita Jones to headline this event. Over the last two decades, Benita Jones (formerly known as Benita Washington) has become one of the pre-eminent voices in praise and worship music circles. Partnering with local gospel choirs from Northern California, we want to spread a message of hope, as well as give back to our community. We aim to collect several items such as coats, blankets, beanie hats, gloves, hand warmers, socks, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo and conditioner, to assist local churches participating in the Winter Sanctuary program. The Black Small Business Association of CA provides professional development, business resources and advocacy in support of creating a thriving and successful Black business community throughout the state of California.
