In conjunction with the American Red Cross, Seattle Theatre Group (STG) presents the Seattle Helping Haiti on Thursday, January 28, 2010 at 8:00 pm at the Moore Theatre.

Our mission is to unite members of the Seattle community to raise funds and help those affected by the recent earthquake in Haiti. With the help of the Red Cross and the Seattle Theatre Group, The Seattle Helping Haiti Concert and Auction was born. All net proceeds from the event will go to the earthquake victims in Haiti.

A collection of Seattle's favorites bands new and old have come together to create a one of a kind concert experience. Bands donating their time include Sweet Water, Vince Mira, MXPX, The Maldives, The Classic Crime and The Memphis Radio Kings. The event will also include a silent auction with donated items from local businesses, athletes, and musicians. The show will be hosted by numerous radio personalities, all of whom will be encouraging attendees to donate throughout the evening.

All proceeds will go to the American Red Cross' relief efforts to Haiti. Red Cross local chapter CEO will be speaking at the event, and the Red Cross will have a large onsite presence. The Red Cross recognizes Seattle Helping Haiti as a fully sanctioned Red Cross event and are promoting it throughout all their channels.
