Supporting Culture in Forest Hills
Tax deductible
[ Video Updates coming soon ]
Hello Contributors!
My name is Rene David Alkalay, Founder & Spiritual Preceptor of the Genesis Society.
After years of witnessing the times we live in develop and decompose, I decided to give back to the community by opening an 100% Organic and Vegan Café, right in the heart of Forrest Hills. The name "Red Pipe Café" was created in relation to the large red pipe that runs throughout our café.
Through the Genesis Society, a 501C3 not-for-profit organization, we have provided a venue for their programs in the arts. There is, in Queens, a large demographic of talented Artists and Musicians that come have approached the genesis society asking if we could help with providing a venue where they might try out their new material or present material from any collections or albums that have been previously recorded. Therefore, the Genesis Society has created several venues for presenting the work of these artists/musicians, They started hosting free Live Performances, Open Mics, Art Exhibitions and Jam Sessions. Unfortunately due to compliance regulations regarding music, these events are on the verge of being shut down unless we purchase yearly licensing agreements from ASCAP, BMI and SEASEC to host Live Music Events.
With the help of some of NYC's local Non-Profits, Media Collectives and Entertainment Groups, we've been able to create some great ideas for events that can help us reach our pushed goal of $2,000. All extra donations will directly help the organizations with making these events happen by covering the costs of equipment and services.
We need to raise donations for our goal by April 20th, 2018. I'd like to thank you all for visiting our GoFundMe campaign page, and we hope to hear from you soon!
