ALL FOR UKRAINE will be a concert fundraising event featuring performances from a wide variety of musicians from all across Long Island along with special guests and a raffle ticket auction.Everyone involved with the show – from the theater staff to the performers to the bartenders – is working for free so that every single dollar raised from ticket sales and other donations will go directly to the cause. All of the money raised will be donated to 3 different organizations working to provide relief efforts in Ukraine: UNICEF for ensuring Ukraine's children have access to safe water, nutrition, health care, education and protection; Doctors Without Borders to provide medical attention in Ukraine and neighboring countries where people have fled; and United Ukrainian American Relief Committee to purchase medical supplies and equipment to send to their contacts and volunteer network in Ukraine. Upon checkout, patrons will be able to choose which organization they'd like to have the cost of their ticket support. "What's happening right now is absolutely devastating – both for those in Ukraine as well as our Ukrainian American neighbors here with us. As a place where thousands of people from all different walks of life come together every weekend, we wanted to do what we could with what we have", says Gary Hygom, Executive Director of Suffolk Theater, "We have a stage; we have incredibly talented and generous musicians all around us; and a community that is capable of doing a whole lot of good." Thus far, the growing list of performers includes: The HooDoo Loungers, Corky Laing, Cassandra House, Kerry Kearney Band, G.E. Smith & Taylor Barton Smith, Gene Casey and The Lone Sharks, Bryan Gallo, and more to be announced...
