5th Annual Recital for Refugees

“Refugees are mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, children, with the same hopes and ambitions as us -- except that a twist of fate has bound their lives to a global refugee crisis on an unprecedented scale.”- Khaled Hosseini

 

On Friday, December 3rd at 7PM, our world-class performers will share their talents in a live and live-streamed concert from NYC to raise awareness, compassion, and money for the refugee crisis. There will be a variety of music for all to enjoy—from popular opera arias to inspirational Broadway showtunes, and more, including the world premier of a new song, “Hope” by Andy Eaton.

 

We have chosen to fundraise specifically for the International Rescue Committee because of their incredible work in over 40 countries to provide clean water, shelter, health care, education, and empowerment support to refugees and displaced people around the world. Over the past five years, RFR has brought musicians together to raise their voices for this devastating humanitarian crisis. We will continue to sing until everyone finds a place to call home.

 

Due to covid and safety protocols, the option to attend the live performance will be limited to the first 50 donors. All donors will receive the live stream link 24 hours before the concert.
